Angel Food Ministry
Angel Food Ministries is a non-profit, non-denominational
organization dedicated to providing grocery
relief and financial support to communities

gospel of Christ through salvation tracts
that are placed in each food order. By buying
food from first rate suppliers at substantial
volume discounts, Angel Food Ministries
is able to provide families with approximately

Bible
Studies
On the 4th Friday of each month, at 7:00 p.m.,
we are studying the book of Hebrews.
"Long ago God spoke to our ancestors
in many and various ways by the prophets,
but in these last days he has spoken to us
by a Son" begins the book of Hebrews.
Please join us as we seek to understand and
grow through this word from God. It is a book
of deep theology that helps bind both Old
and New Testaments. It is a book of pastoral
care that desires the Church to grow in maturity
and wisdom. The book of Hebrews weaves a beautiful
tapestry of theology and exhortation which
we as the Church of today need just as much
as the Church of the past. This study will
begin in January and will be taught by Samuel
Weems. If you are interested in joining please
contact Samuel Weems or Mary Ealy for more
information.

Each
Sunday, two adult groups meet to study a Bible-centered
study. One group uses the Presbyterian
Curriculum, The Present Word, and currently
this focuses on The New Testament Community.
One of the discussions in October will be
from Acts 2:5-13, how people responded to
the signs of God’s Holy Spirit. God
communicates in a unified voice to people
fractured into various languages and dialects.
The Holy Spirit empowers the disciples to
proclaim and praise God’s mighty saving
acts in Jesus. Peter declares in Acts 2:38
that the last days have begun in Jesus’
birth and will conclude with Jesus’
return. He will conclude with a call to repent
for the forgiveness of sins.

The
other adult class, Crosstalk,
currently studies the Old Testament books
of the prophets. Presently, they are studying
the book of Hosea. They seek to see the Bible
prophesies revealed in the New Testament as
they discuss the meaning of these books in
light of today’s moral dilemmas, daily
life, political climate, and relationships.
Each class is taught by a class member in
rotation and the class struggles together
to find truth. Here are samples of the questions:
Where do many of today’s leaders turn
for powerful help as a substitute for God?
What sort of gain tempts you to compromise
your loyalty to Christ? What sometimes makes
a lie more attractive than the truth?

The
Presbyterian Women engage in the
HORIZON’S Bible Study from a magazine
produced by the Presbyterian Church auspices.
This year the study is entitled Jubilee! Luke’s
Gospel to the Poor. Nancy Fuleihan, who teaches
the study to both circles is excited about
the content and how well it aligns with other
church Bible studies this year. Lesson One
will begin with the October Circle Meetings
of both Faith and Grace Circles (check calendar).
This in-depth study continually asks women,
“Who is Jesus to YOU?” As always,
the circles pray earnestly for each other
and support each other’s work. The Gospel
of Luke seeks to teach us how to be Christians.

Society of St.
Andrew's Gleaning
The Society of St. Andrew's network uses
volunteers to glean nutritious produce from
farmers' fields and orchards after the harvest.
This food instead of being left behind to
rot is delivered to those in need. College
Park Presbyterian Church has had a history
of working with the Society of St. Andrews
and found these events to be enjoyable ways
to help provide for the community. Please
contact Don Wadsworth or the Society of
St. Andrew's website
for more information. You can also go to
the Society of St. Andrew's calendar
to check out upcoming gleanings to participate
in.
