Thursday Morning Adult Study | 9:30am to 11:30am in the Rooks Room
Looking for a warm and welcoming Bible study? Join our Thursday morning group! We’re a group of women (and sometimes men) who meet weekly from September through May to delve into God’s word, enjoy fellowship, and pray for each other. Our studies use curriculum from Lifeway or Cokesbury, led by facilitators. We watch DVDs together and engage in thoughtful discussions based on the study guides. All are welcome, and we encourage you to join us as you’re able, no formal commitment is needed. We’re an informal group that values honest, heartfelt sharing. Throughout the year, we also support missions and those in need.
Join us this fall for a verse-by-verse study of the of the book of Joshua, led by video teaching from Jen Wilkin. The study begins Thursday, September 10, from 9:30-11:30am in the Rooks Room. Please join us whenever you are able. Participants may purchase the study guide from Lifeway, Christianbook, Amazon, or another bookseller.
“Joshua: Every Good Promise Fulfilled, by Jen Wilkin“
The book of Joshua chronicles God’s continuing faithfulness to fulfill His covenant promises to Abraham. It is a story of transition: It is a story of transition: Joshua rises to leadership, and the people of God cross the Jordan into the long-awaited Promised Land. Possessing the land will test their strength and courage, but God’s covenant will not fail them. Joshua’s faithful example will also point us toward the perfect faithfulness of Christ. In this 10-session study, Jen Wilkins helps us see that God’s commands, though sometimes difficult, are always rooted in His steadfast love for His people. Israel’s story speaks to our own. While we do not battle against flesh and blood as they did, we courageously resist the temptations of the world, the flesh, and the devil, trusting in the finished work of the true and better Joshua, Jesus Christ.

Create Your Own Small Group
Christian faith flourishes through relationships with other believers, and these relationships have the power to change us. Small groups empower us through group dialogue to become the Gospel message for the world. These groups are able to spend enough time together that they have relationships with one another and spend enough time with Jesus to have a relationship with Him.
Love to lunch, go to movies, read the latest best sellers, or have an informal bible study at your home? Why not create your own small group with something you enjoy doing with others?
If you are interested in starting or joining a small group, contact Pastor Wendy Barnes at wendy@jumc.org
Sunday School Classes
A variety of classes are available for adults of all ages. These Sunday morning offerings take place between the morning worship services from 9:45am-10:45am on our Jamestown UMC campus.
Supper Clubs
To encourage fellowship outside of the church campus, “Supper Clubs” have been created. Typically a group consists anywhere from 12 – 30 people, singles and couples with mixed ages. The clubs meet at restaurants or member’s homes. This is an evolving ministry, and more groups can be formed.
Please feel free to contact the church office for more information.
