ABOUT THE BEATTITUDES SUNDAY SCHOOL SMALL GROUP:
Welcome to the First Presbyterian Church's "Be"-Attitudes "Sunday School" Small Group! This Small Group is not a traditional "class," rather is a facilitated small group.
Each week for up to 10 weeks, we will explore and discover together the meaning of Jesus' teachings in the 8 poetic opening lines of this first, and perhaps most famous, of Jesus' large forum teachings known as the "Beattitudes."
"I came that they may have life, and have it fully." Jesus Christ
With love,
April (your small group facilitator)
