For over the last decade on most Monday evenings during the Fall and Spring "UMCHP" offers two hours of eating and study. We start with a prepared meal, you don't have to cook, at 6:00 PM. The cost of the meal is usually around $6 a person and is collected by "free will" offering baskets at each table. Give what you can to help us to keep offering this wonderful time of fellowship.
At 6:45 PM everyone helps to clean up the dining room.
At 7:00 PM classes start and run for about an hour. You do not have to come to the meal to take a class, nor do you have to take a class to share in the meal time, come either or both.
Here are the dates for the next session of Monday Night Lights:

Opening the scriptures
Leader:
Paul Pearson
Description:
Using the Common Lectionary as our guide we will read the bible verses for the week seeking greater understanding of God's Word and how it applies to our lives. Using an open, low key method of group discussion all levels of experience and knowledge are welcome and invited. No prior Bible study is required. Through our differences we see God's character unveiled.
Special Instructions:
We have many different versions of the Bible that we will use so you can bring your own or pick-up a loaner. There are no assignments and since each session stands alone missing a class will not put you off of the pace.

The Books of 1st, 2nd & 3rd John
Leader:
Kregg Gabor
Description:
Comfortable Christianity often means a weak Christianity. In this study on John's three letters, Dr. Tony Evans challenges Christians who have grown comfortable and complacent in their faith. Fellowship with God is the essence of our faith, and Tony walks through 1, 2 & 3 John to paint a picture of love, obedience, and truth. In a world that hates Jesus, we are called to love Him and His people with a fierce love.
