Walking in Faith: A Lenten Gathering for Women of All Generations

Thursday, February 27 at 8:30am

Please join in a gathering of women at St George’s for breakfast and to hear from renowned speaker the Rev. Sarah Condon, Episcopal priest, podcaster, and writer.  Tables will be assigned to create fellowship across generations so that women can engage with friends and foster new connections as we enter the Lenten season. 

The event is $10 per attendee. Childcare will be provided for children ages 5 and under.  Please register for the event and indicate your need for childcare no later than Friday, February 21.

About our Guest Speaker  |  The Rev. Sarah Condon is an Episcopal priest in Nashville. She makes a home there with her husband Josh (also a priest) and their two children. Condon is the co-host of the Mockingcast and a speaker/writer for Mockingbird Ministries. She also writes an advice column called “Dear Gracie” for Mockingbird magazine. Condon lost her parents in December 2020 in a car accident. It changed everything about her. Her ambitious nature fell apart, and she found something gentler in its place. Frequently she is thinking and writing about forgiveness and the unexpectedness of God’s grace in a world that demands brutality.

Moms' Bible Study

Wednesdays | 9:00 – 10:30am in Akers Hall (upstairs)  

Join the Rev. Sarah Puryear as moms with kids of all ages gather to learn about prayer by reading biblical stories of conversations with God. Join us we look deeper at Moses encountering God in the burning bush, Hannah pouring out her heart to God at the temple, and Jesus taking time to pray alone during his ministry. We’ll be learning about and practicing different forms of prayer along the way! Our time together will center around warm fellowship, conversation, prayer, and of course, Scripture. This group is a great way to deepen your understanding of God’s Word and get connected with other women in a similar season of life. Please register online for the class and for childcare, if needed. Newcomers are welcome at any time!

Women's Bible Study

Thursdays  |  9:30 – 11:00am in Dandridge Hall

Borrowing from best-selling studies by Beth Moore, Priscilla Shirer, Lisa Harper, Kelly Minter, and Jennifer Rothschild, our 5-session study explores crucial moments in the lives of five Old Testament figures — Esther, Gideon, Malachi, Nehemiah, and Hosea. Through their stories, we discover how God uses the lives of ordinary people for his glory and the good of his people. Join us for strength and encouragement as we study The Faithful.
