Young Moms' Bible Study

Men’s Sunday Evening Bible Study
Sundays, July 12, August 2, and August 16, at 8:00 p.m., Library & Zoom
Over the summer, the men of Sunday evening will meet several time to continue our work through the Gospel of Matthew. Currently, we are focusing on the Sermon on the Mount – the best summary we have of Jesus’ teaching. If you’d like to be on the email reminder list for this gathering, please contact Dan Love.
Summer Bible Study: Philippians
Wednesdays, August 12, 19, and 26, and September 2 and 9, from 3:00-4:30 p.m., in the Library
Join Rev. Cari for an in-depth Beth Moore study through the book of Philippians. One of the best loved letters of Paul, written from prison, this short book packs a powerful message of joy, unity, and hope amid hardship.
We’ll be exploring “The Surpassing Value of Knowing Christ: A Study of Philippians,” co-authored by Beth Moore and Melissa Moore. Throughout the summer, we’ll meet across five consecutive weeks for 90-minute sessions in the church library, in-person only. This study includes workbook homework, live discussion, and a weekly viewing of Beth Moore’s teaching videos together.
If this is your introduction to Beth Moore, you’re in for a treat! She’s a decades-long Bible teacher and speaker based in Houston, TX, whose studies are full of humor, life-application, and intensive research on Scripture. Moore writes: “The book of Philippians is exhortation driven by unabashed affection. Discover how you can be unstoppable in love, faith and good works even amidst frustration and opposition.”
RSVP by emailing Rev. Cari. We’ll all begin together on August 12; there’s no homework before the study begins! The required workbook is purchasable online for $20: lproof.org/philippians
Monday Morning Bible Discussion
We’ll be taking a pause for the summer – but we’ll be back in action starting in September – continuing our reading and discussion of the Gospel of Matthew. If you are interested in joining in, please contact Dan Love.
Saturday Women’s Bible Study
Saturday Women’s Bible Study will resume in October. Until then, if you’d like to be added to the email list, please contact Cynthia Wells. All are welcome!
RPC Programs
Church Choirs
Summer Volunteer Choir
Sundays, through August 9
Please join us! All (middle-school age and older) are invited to meet at 9:30 a.m. each Sunday, through August 9, in the chapel, to learn and rehearse a piece of music to sing in the 10:00 service. You get to sit with your family or friends, and you do not wear a robe. This is a great opportunity to meet new people and to find your way into the church’s music ministry.
Though there is no commitment required for any one of or all of these Sundays, it is helpful to know if you plan to be there. To that end, please call 914-967-0842, ext. 16, or send an email to Jason Charneski. Thank you!
Instrumentalists
We encourage those who play instruments to contribute their musical abilities by adding these sounds to the many others offered in worship. Please contact Jason Charneski to learn more.
