Picnic & Pawpaw Hunt, Sunday, Aug 31
This is your sub-headline

After worship on Sunday, August 31, BYO Lunch and join us for a walk down to the C&O Canal trail by the Georgetown Waterfront for a casual picnic together, and then a hunt for pawpaws! Pawpaws are a native fruit that grows in trees, and we're hoping we've hit the timing right to find some ripe ones together. Kids and families especially welcome. Dress for a walk through the woods and bring water. Hope to see you - we'll gather and leave from church by 11:30.

Surprised by Hope
Study series Thursday evenings August 7 through September 11

Need some hope right now? Wish you knew more or want to dig deeper on topics like hope in Jesus, resurrection, heaven, and the purpose of the church? Join in for a six session study, weekly through 9/11, offered in person at GLC and online Thursdays 7:30-8:30pm on Zoom here, led by Pastor Brett Wilson.
The study is called "Surprised by Hope," by N.T. Wright. It utilizes brief videos, reflection/discussion, and Bible study, in a participant guide that you can pick up at church or order online. No homework required or reading ahead for sessions - just bring the participant book and join in! 

Prospective & New Members: Getting Connected, 9/21

Come if you've been before, are interested in joining, or a current member wanting to welcome others!

Study Guides & Resources

On our Read & Explore Faith page there are a few blog entries on various topics, which also point in the direction of further resources. We've also (just) started a Goodreads page to share reviews of different books - detail here.
Early in the summer we had two one-session topic studies - on topics which, given current events, our wider church has encouraged us to study our denomination's statements and faith perspective/resources on.  Pastor Brett created a study guide for self study or learning more about each topic: Abortion and Community Violence.
