Men’s Bible Study, led by Bill Lloyd, is offered after worship in the Church Library. We share Joys & Concerns for our families and discuss one or two chapters of the Bible each week.

These familiar stories come from both the Old and New Testament and provide wonderful lessons that we can share with our children, grandchildren as well as our St. Matthew’s family of Godchildren in our daily lives. Wherever you are in your life’s journey, . . . this Men’s Bible Study will provide opportunities to bear rich fruit in the hearts and lives of Christian children and teens as you help introduce or go deeper in relating these stores of Bible History as they grow in their faith. Please email Bill Lloyd at to be included on the weekly email list to find out about our upcoming Scripture passages or just stop by Sunday morning.

Class dates: 1/5 - 5/18
