Clarence United Methodist Church, located at 10205 Greiner Road, is participating in “40 Days in the Word,” beginning Jan. 27. This six-week study by Rick Warren is based on the belief that knowing and applying the word should create the foundation of our lives. If you have studied the bible yourself, in a class, or listened to many sermons, do you find yourself asking, “Yes, but how?” This study will teach you how to read the bible and how to apply it to your life.

The study involves individual participation with a daily devotion time of 15 minutes; small group participation, which consists of a short video and discussion once a week; Sunday worship service with services designed for “40 Days in the Word”; and the Micah 6:8 project where each small group will work on a mission project to put faith into action.

You can be placed in a small group, please contact the office so a group can be put together. Invite your friends and neighbors.
