Lenten Small Groups
Thursday Women's Lenten Study
Thursday mornings, 11:00 a.m. to noon
in the Terrace Room
begins March 6 and runs 6 weeks
Facilitated by Betty Shivers
We will be studying, The Hardest Part--- Hurt we Carry, Hope we Find by Kate Bowler.
"Life is this strange tender mix, isn't it? Joy and sorrow. Love and loss. Big wins and even bigger failures. We cling tightly to the beautiful moments, but then the phone rings, a diagnosis drops, or some creeping ache reminds us that everything--- everything--- is more fragile than we would like to admit. Lent invites us to stop pretending we can hold it all together.... life is fragile, and so are we." ( Kate Bowler)
Each week includes scripture to read, suggested discussion questions, and prayers.
For more information, contact the Rev. Katherine Harper and she will put you in touch with Betty.

Men of all ages are welcome to join us as we explore the deeper dimensions of life and seek connection, growth, and inner strength. If you're looking for a space to deepen your spiritual journey, share experiences, and engage with other men, we invite you to join our Men's Group – “Let’s Talk.”
Participants in the Men’s Group will honor each other’s paths, offer support, and create a community for respectful, honest reflection. Come as you are. No judgment. No expectations. Just men spending meaningful time exploring life’s bigger questions, learning from each other’s experiences and growing together. If you're ready to embark on this journey with us, we look forward to seeing you on Thursday evenings!
Please feel free to reach out to admin@thresholdcenter.org or katherine@ssechurch.org with any questions and they will refer you to the facilitators.
