Going without Knowing Advent Bible Study Series: by Rev. Rhonda R. Taylor 

Today, the New York Conference of the Methodist Church finds itself having to deal with a tidal wave of several realities following the COVID pandemic: a shortage of clergy, early retirements, and the issue of church sustainability. The changing landscape caused Bishop Bickerton and his cabinet to organize the churches within our conference into cooperative parishes. The cooperative parish model is a positive way to engage in mutual ministry and support among local churches within its respective districts. It also encourages us to trust God with a new mind, a new heart, and fresh eyes of what can become as we move forward. 

This Advent bible study invites us to reflect upon various biblical characters and their stories in how they followed God without fully knowing the future. Yet, they trusted God enough with hope, peace, joy, and love within their hearts. 

Come join us on this journey via Zoom, knowing God will speak if we allow ourselves to hear. Contact Golden Hill UMC at (203) 336-0152 or via email office@goldenhill.org to register. 

The study will be led by a variety of lay people from the Greater Bridgeport Cooperative Parish.  Click here for an event flyer.
