Here is the book recommended by Congregational Life for the Wednesday Morning Women's Bible Study. Jennifer lost her sight at the age of 15 and shares what God has taught her about living a life of faith rather than sight.  She encourages us to look at all of life through the lens of Christ which filters out what is seen and focuses on the unseen  which is eternal.  She leads us on a path that assures us "It is well with our soul even when it is not well with our circumstances."  If anyone wants to view the materials, please let me know. -- Sandy Althous

The assimilation class offered by Congregational Life on Sunday morning and led by Sandy and Sean needs to order new material.

It is produced by InterVarsity Press. It looks like a great study plan for the class.
