This Blog's For You!
We want to start blogging so we can get to know each other and share ideas. Please leave your comments and/or send ideas that we can post as blog entries by emailing them to us at sistersatthewell@mac.com
The first contribution is from Michelle Waddell from the El Cerrito Ward in Corona, CA where they have two scripture study groups going. Michelle writes:
"I think that it has been very beneficial- there are some of the sisters that felt that they were not as spiritually smart as some of the others and were quite relieved when they came up with the same answer- it def. gave them confidence. We rotate who is going to lead the discussion. But we keep the meeting place at the same persons home and they are the one who sends out the reminder to each sister. So far that has been working well for us. There are some that never want to be the one to lead the discussion which is fine but I think that all feel comfortable to speak up and voice what they feel. For me it has helped me to really think about what I am reading and how I can apply it. We read every day with my 3 young children but this is something that is just for me plus it shows them that Mommy also studies the scriptures on her own. "
Please write with your own experiences and comment on what you see here. We are now an on-line community!

We have two groups in Rocklin, CA. One is studying Doctrine and Covenants and the other is studying Acts. We are really enjoying it. And I agree with Michelle, that some think they aren't as well versed, but their answers give them confidence to continue. And we are becoming more comfortable with identifying our own special experiences that relate to the study subject. We love it!
ReplyDeleteMy sister just completed a 7 year scripture study of the Bible through an international non denominational organization called BSF (Bible Scripture Fellowship) It has the same format as the Women at the Well Scripture Study. I love the study group and wondered if you created the BSF study as well.
