THE STORY THROUGH THE YEAR
A season for every gathering.
Our Bible curriculum continues through the year, while Christian seasons draw us to the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.
Western dates use the Gregorian calendar. Observance practices vary: some churches transfer Ascension or Epiphany to a Sunday.

At Advent, continue the current study while reading Isaiah’s promise and the birth narratives in Matthew and Luke. During Holy Week, give direct attention to the cross and resurrection. Our seasonal gatherings connect these readings with our continuing life of faith.
