Press release

This Women of the Word (W.O.W.) will begin another year of Christian Bible study on Grand Island. Hosted by Trinity Church, 2100 Whitehaven Road, the ladies of W.O.W. will examine a survey of the New Testament and the Old Testament book of Nehemiah. The “Premier Celebration” is Thursday, Sept. 10, beginning at 9:15 a.m.

W.O.W. invites ladies of all ages to join for Bible lessons, teaching, prayer, worship and fellowship each Thursday morning from September to May. The format includes study guides to be completed each week, with sharing of answers and insights during small group time. This is followed by worship songs and a lecture on the day’s featured Scriptures.

The ministry of Women of the Word began in California and was brought to Grand Island in the late-1980s by the late Barbie Bird who served as its director for several years. Other W.O.W. groups flourish throughout the U.S. and internationally, all having the goal of increasing Bible literacy and of fostering personal relationships with Jesus Christ.

No prior Bible study experience is necessary. Women from all walks of life and faith affiliations are encouraged to attend. There is a fee of $55 for the lesson books.

New members are welcome to join at any time throughout the year. For more information, contact Kathy Duff at 716-867-7966.
