Fall 2025 Women’s Seasonal Study Groups

Many understand praying to be nothing more than talking to God—a conversation where we ask the Creator of the world for help; it’s our opportunity to ask the Lord for something.

Is there more to it than that? Yes!

Join us this fall as we examine a handful of the prayers in the Bible to discover this foundational truth: the Lord uses prayer to shape us into the holy, righteous image of Christ. And, because we receive Christ’s righteousness, we can be assured that “The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working” (James 5:16b).

Our study is designed so that all participants receive a study guide, weekly teaching, and time to connect through discussion and prayer. Depending on which study format you choose, the teaching will be either in-person or via a podcast.

See below to find the best time and study format for you! Feel free to join more than one!

Tuesday AM Women’s Group (9:30 -11 a.m.) • Large group teaching by Christ Pres teachers, small group discussion, childcare provided. Begins Sept. 9, meets in the Sanctuary.
