Video overview by Pastor Sharyl of Lesson 8, “Mary in the Faith and Tradition of the Church” from the Horizon 2021-2022 Women’s Bible Study, What My Grandmothers Taught Me: Learning from the Women in Matthew’s Genealogy of Jesus. The Women’s Bible Study will NOT meet on in person on Thursday, April 14 as usual. The video is also available on YouTube HERE.

Like the other women in our study this year, Mary was a woman on the outside of her social situation, vulnerable but strong.  She was a young girl, in danger of complete disgrace, who had the courage to say “Yes” to God.  Although Luke & John gave Mary something to say, and the four Gospels and Acts mention some of what she did, we have no idea where Mary came from, who her parents were, or anything else about her.  What we do know is that God chose her to be the woman “of whom Jesus was born.”

The Women’s Bible Study will meet in person on May 10th the 2nd Thursday of May at 1:00 PM in person and on Zoom. Please call the church office for the Zoom link (609-921-8895).
