| When & Where: We meet at the Penn Ave. Meeting Hall at 7:00 pm, Tuesday Nights, preceded by dinner at 6:00 pm. |
| We enjoy fellowship together during dinner, and then feed on the spiritual riches of God's Word at 7:00 pm. Our goal is to understand God's Word and apply it to our daily life. The application of the Word is through having Christ revealed and supplied to us as our daily enjoyment and reality: "The law was given through Moses; grace and reality came through Jesus Christ." (John 1:17). Christ is embodied in the Word. When we read the Word and pray it into us, the Spirit in the Word strengthens us into our inner man so Christ can make His home in our hearts. |

| "This corporate fellowship nourishes and strengthens me. Without the word of God, Christ is vague and mysterious to me. But once He is revealed in His Word, my concepts change and I see how practical Christ can be." |
