Community Bible Study
Come see what happens in people’s lives when they discover God through the study of His Word, the Bible.
Our classes meet weekly on Thursdays in Haverhill MA, during the school year. We offer in-person or online classes to fit your needs. Each class participant receives a course book with a commentary and home study questions. Every week you’ll engage in small group discussions followed by a large group teaching, all designed to deepen your understanding and connection with God's Word.
Registration is $35 for each Adult and $10 for each Child (ages 6 Months through High School.) Financial Aid Scholarships are available. To register online, simply scroll to the top of this page and click on the Register Now button in the top right corner.

This September, we invite you to journey through the book of Psalms, a collection of heartfelt prayers and praises written over centuries.
Join us as we explore God’s unwavering love, a love that meets us right where we are and calls us to seek Him with our whole hearts.
Through this in-depth study, you’ll uncover timeless truths, deepen your trust, and open your heart in fresh ways to God’s presence, power, and character.
In the Psalms, you will encounter a relational God, one who sees you, understands your struggles, and welcomes your fears and longings with grace.

Next Gen Ministry
We welcome your children to experience the love of Jesus through our dedicated Next Gen Ministry!
Children ages 6 months through High School are welcome to attend our In-Person classes, where they will grow in faith through age appropriate lessons and activities.
Preschool and Young Elementary- Learn through engaging Bible teachings, crafts, activities and music to bring God's Word to life.
Older Elementary, Middle School, and High School- Study the same book of the Bible as the adults, with materials designed for their age group.
We pray this shared study will spark meaningful family discussions and a deeper love for God's Word at home. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMUNITY BIBLE STUDY INTERNATIONAL
Our Ministry is honored to be praying for and supporting two incredible regions this year through Community Bible Study International.

Together, we are excited to see how God will use this opportunity to deepen our faith and impact lives around the world.
