Correspondence Courses
One of our congregation’s ministries is a bible study correspondence course for inmates in prison. We are looking for some volunteers to take on that ministry. It involves grading mailed-in bible study pamphlets, and sending the next set of study guides. The church provides the postage & the course material, and Brad is available to answer any questions. If you are interested in participating, talk with one of the shepherds or Brad.
