EQUIPPING CLASSES
SUNDAYS
EBC offers Equipping Classes on Sunday mornings at 9:00 AM. The goal of these classes is to not only provide sound biblical teaching, but to also foster fellowship and outreach opportunities.
Starting in the Fall, we will be walking through the entire Bible—together! Each week, we will include the upcoming passages in the bulletin so that folks can read and reflect on it beforehand. We will rotate teachers each month, beginning with Pastor Patrick. Each class will follow the same format of teaching, interactive discussion, followed by group prayer. Come join us in the Chapel beginning Sunday, September 14th!

MEN
Christian men face formidable challenges in today’s world. There are many obstacles that impede us from living “in a manner worthy of the calling” of Christ (Ephesians 4:1). Our desire at EBC is to encourage men in the outworking of their Christian calling, whether it concerns the workplace, home (as a husband and/or father), or their personal walk with the Lord.
Man Up Mondays will be starting back up Monday, September 15th, at 6:00 AM in the Fireside Room. We will be studying Leading with Love by Alexander Strauch. This year, we will also be offering the option of doing the study on Wednesday nights at 6:30 PM in W102. Your copy can be picked up in the Resource Center for only $10. Be sure to
register on the Church Center app or at the Connections Desk. For more information, please contact Pastor Tim Drumm at 360-424-1173 or tim@ebcmv.org.
WOMEN
The women of Emmanuel have many opportunities to live out their calling in Christ. The primary ministry emphasis for women is our Titus Two ministry, which teaches and trains women to think and live in accordance to God’s design for us so that He may be glorified.
There are also several women-specific Bible studies offered throughout the year, as well as larger-scale fellowship and teaching events. At any event or gathering that Women’s Ministries hosts, there will be a Bible-centered message for the women, as our desire is to encourage the women at EBC to become women of discernment who live out God’s word in our lives and community as ambassadors of Christ in a very lost world.
Starting Wednesday, September 17th, we begin a 27-week study in the book of Philippians! We will be using a guided book by author Susan Heck entitled With the Master: In Fullness of Joy. We will be meeting on Wednesday mornings from 9:30-11:00 AM. We will also be offering an evening study from 6:30-8:00 PM. Sign-ups are on the Church Center app or at the Connections Desk. The cost for the book will be $18.
