*Fall Adult Ministries Opportunities:

*Our fall Men's Bible study "A Man and His Work"- begins on Sunday, September 15th from 7:30-8:30am - Most men work forty hours a week for forty years, equaling eighty thousand work hours during a lifetime! It is not uncommon for men to work all eighty thousand hours and not give much thought to the reality that God created us to work for his glory. This semester, we will focus on a book titled "The Gospel at Work: How the Gospel Gives New Purpose and Meaning to our Jobs." We would love for you to invite co-workers and friends to learn how we were created for and can find joy in work. Please note our new Sunday date and time for men's bible study! Register online at www.curreycreek.com/men.

*Women's Bible study "Steadfast in Christ: A Study of 1 and 2 Thessalonians"- Join us this fall for our women's bible study on the book of 1 and 2 Thessalonians, beginning Wednesday mornings from 9:30-11:30am on September 11th or Tuesday night, September 10th from 6:30-8pm. Written to a church enduring severe persecution, Paul wanted to not only ground the Thessalonians, but also grow and mature them in their faith in the midst of their suffering. He knew times of tribulation are also times of temptation to give in to compromise or discouragement. By reminding us of the truth about God and what Christ has done for us, Paul encourages us to stand firm and live worthy of our calling - no matter what life throws our way. Come find hope, encouragement and refreshment in God's Word to persevere with purpose, confidence hope and peace through the study of Thessalonians. Register online at www.curreycreek.com/women.

*Creek Institute "Simplicity:Finding Contentment in a Busy Life"- Beginning September 15th, join us for a five-week study on contentment. It's never our plan to complicate our lives, but it happens. We think a plate overflowing with activity, money or possessions will lead to a cup overflowing with joy and satisfaction, but contentment eludes us. When we quit filling our lives with everything else, simplify our lives, and focus on the one thing that matters most, we find the contentment we want, and it's all wrapped up in Christ, trusting and living simply in Him. Register online at www.curreycreek.com/creekinstitute.
