Community Bible
Study
Find truth in an
uncertain world! What does the Bible say? Community Bible Study
(CBS) invites women and children of all ages to attend our next
30-week class series.
Together we will discover
truths to help us live well through the study of six New Testament
letters. Join us this fall for a weekly study on Thursdays, 10:00
am until 12:00pm beginning September 14, 2017.
This study is held at New
Beginnings Church of the Nazarene, 33 Staniels Road, Loudon, NH

Community Bible Study is
an interdenominational organization whose mission is to make
disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ in our communities through
caring, in-depth Bible study available to all. Please check out our
website at www.communitybiblestudy.org
to learn more about us. For more information or to receive a
registration form, please contact Connie Zobel at
[email protected].
Our students are from a
variety of Christian denominations, some come from no religious
background and others from non-Christian faiths. We all have the
common goal to study the Bible. The Bible is the most widely
published and studied book in the world. We offer a safe and loving
environment for babies and toddlers with age appropriate Bible
stories and activities. School-aged children typically study the
same passages as the adults allowing families to discuss the Bible
together.
The children’s program is
almost full so please contact us regarding availability. We have
about 700 Bible study classes throughout the United States. CBS is
also active internationally in over 80 countries.
