'HARMONY BY THE BAY' ON SATURDAY, JUNE 15TH

'FULLY ALIVE' STUDY STARTS JUNE 5TH

Ladies and young ladies, come join us for our 11-week summer bible study, “Fully Alive.” We will be meeting Wednesday evenings, starting June 5th, from 5:00-6:00 pm in the Fireside Room.

In this eye-opening book, Susie Larson shows us how intertwined our emotional, spiritual, and physical health are. Spiritual difficulties can have physical consequences, and physical illnesses can have emotional and even spiritual ramifications. So in order for true healing to occur, it must happen holistically--mind, body, and spirit.

Providing a fresh vision of what a flourishing life is, Susie shares practical, biblical ways to

· replace defeating thoughts with redemptive ones

· overcome stress and embrace God's peace

· deal with the "I can'ts" embedded in our souls

· trade unhealthy habits for new life-giving practices

We cannot keep ignoring the mental and/or emotional symptoms that are trying to get our attention. Fully Alive is an uplifting guide for anyone who longs to know the health, freedom, and wholeness that Jesus wants for us.

To sign up for this study, fill out the insert in this Sunday's bulletin or contact Kim Frederiksen at 715-923-9113 or office@nshorechurch.org.
