Opportunities for Ministry and Service Monday, June 28th Bible Study @ the Parsonage—7:00 PM Reading: Matthew 17 Tuesday, June 29th Bible Study @ Audrey Smith’s—10:00 AM Reading: Matthew 18 UMW—7:30 PM Wednesday, June 30th Prayer Meeting @ Williams—5:45 PM Choir @ Williams—6:30 PM Five Practices of Fruitful Congregations As we begin the summer, we are starting a new season at Antioch and Williams as well — a season of examining our fruitfulness as churches.
