Emmaus Group starts again on Thursday 29th November 2007

Our Emmaus Group starts a new programme on Thursday 29th November.

The Emmaus Group is a small group of people who meet together every other week to pray, study the scriptures and get to know each other better.

In September and October they looked at Prayer using the Lord’s Prayer as a model, and after a short break, they are now going to look at the Old Testament (in three sessions!) to get a rough idea of the general sweep of history of the Old Testament and some of its key characters.  The Old Testament was the Bible that Jesus and the disciples knew and is the Bible of the Jewish people today.  These three sessions will help us get to know the history of the Old Testament better and cover the following areas:

Thursday 29th November     From Abraham to Joshua

Thursday 13th December      From Joshua to the Exile

Thursday 17th January         From the Exile to St John the Baptist.

Then on 31st January we will start a brief overview of the New Testament.

The group usually meets at Margaret and Gwen’s home in Altrincham, but this week will meet at Sue’s home nearby.  If you wish to come, and need directions, please email Margaret and Gwen on migwy4@ntlworld.com.

With much love

Andy
