A group of women from CTK are planning to attend Biblical Theology Workshop for Women with Nancy Guthrie. The event on Saturday, October 15th has sold out, but they’ve now added a date on the afternoon of Sunday, October 16. No matter how much you already know or don’t know about the Bible, if you’re a woman who wants to know your Bible better, this workshop is for you!

Lunch & learn

CTK Women's Ministry "Lunch & Learn" - Sunday, July 10 at 12:30PM
Please join us as we kick off a series of picnics (either indoor or outdoor) -- fellowship and learn about topics via interviews with various women in our community. The kick-off topic will be "Grief". We will be interviewing Jeanie Carson, a bereavement counselor at Good Shepherd Community Care in Newton, MA. Jeanie will cover questions about what grief is, ways of helping someone who is grieving, navigating our own grief, resources for addressing grief, including losses that were never fully grieved, and dealing with “disenfranchised grief” or losses beyond death of a significant person in our lives. We will also have time for prayer. Invite a friend or two! Bring your own lunch and chair/blanket and we will either picnic at Dana Park or in Fellowship Hall (weather depending). For more info, please contact Martha Olson at women@ctkcambridge.org.
