Advent Judith Circle
Every Second Tuesday of the Month at 9:30 am
Contact the Church Office for Location
The morning circle, Judith Circle, meets 9:30 am at the MCC, on the 2nd Tuesday of each month, September through June. Announcements (with the address of the month’s hostess) are always carried in the newsletter and bulletin and we urge any woman to just show up—no advance call is necessary. We share a morning coffee break and the Bible Study found in the centerfold of the magazine, Lutheran Woman Today. We deepen our faith and our friendship all at the same time and we try to keep abreast of issues affecting women whether that’s community-, nation-, or world-wide. The free-will offering we collect supports the national women’s organization of the ELCA as well as needs here at Advent/MCC. We’d love to have you join us whenever you can.
