This Wed will be our last lesson in Daniel. I hope you will be able to join us as we wrap up this wonderful study!!
We will have our Christmas potluck brunch next week, Dec 16. We will meet from 9:30 to 12:00. We'll watch the video for Lesson 10 from 9:30-10:25. Then we'll enjoy brunch...followed by our ornament exchange. For the ornament exchange, you'll need to find an ornament for $10 or less. Wrap it and bring it with you to the brunch.
See ya tomorrow!

Lesson 9

I'm looking forward to resuming our study of Daniel tomorrow! We will be working on Lesson 9. If you've missed some lessons and feel like you're too far behind to come to class, please reconsider! We will spend time reviewing....and I think you'll find that even if there are some gaps in your understanding, you will have enough info to understand the big picture.
Lesson 10 will be our last lesson....can you believe it?! What a study this has been!

See ya tomorrow morning!

Images

I really enjoy looking at images of the people I'm studying. So this morning I searched the web for images of Antiochus Epiphanes IV. I believe he is the 'despicable person' mentioned in Dan 11:21. We've read about this guy before in Daniel 8. Remember?
Check out this website for some images of this guy, as well as some info about him: http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.mlahanas.de/Greeks/Bios/AntiochusIVEpiphanes.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.mlahanas.de/Greeks/Bios/AntiochusIV.html&usg=__OlAcbUgHsH72ZlJFIfSllshXJHw=&h=400&w=326&sz=8&hl=en&start=2&um=1&tbnid=TB-MkGIa6bxKKM:&tbnh=124&tbnw=101&prev=/images%3Fq%3DAntiochus%2Bepiphanes%2BIV%2Bimages%26hl%3Den%26rls%3Dcom.microsoft:*%26sa%3DX%26um%3D1

Announcement

Next week, Nov 18, we will have a 'Mexican potluck' following class. So, bring a Mexican dish to share...and let's enjoy some fellowship!

We will not meet Nov 25 because of Thanksgiving. Our next class after Thanksgiving will be Dec 2. We will complete our study Dec 9.

We will meet Dec 16 during our regular class time for a Christmas brunch and ornament exchange. For those of you who are new to our group, start looking for a Christmas ornament under $10. Bring it wrapped on the 16th and get ready for a wild ride! Our ornament exchanges can get pretty wild and crazy...you won't want to miss it!

Lesson 8

Please mark your calendars: We will meet next Wed, Nov 18...but we will not meet Nov 25, the Wed before Thanksgiving. When we come back after Thanksgiving, we will have 2 lessons left and will finish the study Dec 9.

For the 1st 4 days this week, we'll be focusing on chapter 11. It's a long and rather complicated chapter...and a long lesson! Day 5 in our homework instructs us to observe chapter 12. If you have time this week to observe chapter 12....great! But, if you find that the 1st 4 days of the lesson take a long time, then I would suggest you wait and observe chapter 12 during the week of Thanksgiving. After all, we'll have 2 weeks to finish lesson 9, so it might be helpful to save Day 5 of this lesson for the break. If you decide to do this, be sure to make a note in your workbook to remind yourself to observe chapter 12! It'd be easy to forget! We will discuss chapter 11 in class next week.

Announcements

There is an international womens' group that meets at Providence on Wed mornings. They're going to be making Christmas wreaths as a craft project. The lady who organizes these meetings, Mi Jung, told me today that they need any kind of Christmas decorations that would work on wreaths. She specifically mentioned flowers and ornaments. So, if you happen to have any extra decorations to share with this group, they'd greatly appreciate it! Just bring them on Wed morning and we'll get them to Mi Jung.
This ministry is a wonderful outreach to international women who live in our area.
Thanks!
