MEN'S BIBLE STUDY
During the Fall and Spring, men of all ages are invited to attend the weekly Men’s Bible Study, held every Tuesday morning at Park View Mennonite Church. After a 3-1/2 year hiatus for a pandemic, it has re-launched, 20 years after it began. While it is under the sponsorship of Virginia Mennonite Conference, this is an inter-church Bible study that includes men from many area Mennonite churches, as well as other denominations. It lasts for one hour, from 7:00 to 8:00. It begins with breakfast (serving line opens at 6:45) and fellowship around the tables. The Bible study itself begins shortly after 7:00, and after a period of teaching, the hour ends with small group conversation around the tables, facilitated by table leaders.
