Adult Study Groups @ South Shore
Life is best lived in community. Small groups are an opportunity to gather and guide one another through all the intersections of faith and the real world.
At South Shore UMC we provide a small group experience for every age, and have as a goal that everyone connected to our congregation be growing in a small group experience.

Sunday Morning Small Group
The Third Day by Bishop Tom Berlin
Beginning Sunday, March 9 @ 10:40hr in Rm 116
This Sunday Morning Small Group will explore the experiences of several individuals around Jesus in his final days, focusing on new life and redemption rather than loss.
Using Bishop Tom Berlin's book and DVD sessions, we will join Peter, Mary Magdalene, and Thomas as they feel the despair of losing Jesus and the surprise and joy that awaits them in the resurrection. This study traces events around these characters, along with Paul and the disciples at Emmaus, and how the resurrection transforms their lives.
This class will include video and discussion components. Participants are encouraged to obtain a personal copy of Bishop Berlin's book for this study.

Lenten Zoom Group
The Hardest Part by. Dr. Kate Bowler
Mondays @ 9 p.m. via Zoom beginning March 10

Using Dr. Kate Bowler's devotional as our guide, join this Zoom Group as we enter the fragile and unfinished-ness of our lives during Lent, sit with friends, and seek God's guidance through all the hard parts.
