BIBLE STUDY GROUPS
We believe that Bible study is necessary for spiritual growth. Since God has revealed Himself to us in His word, we must continually study the Bible o learn more about His plan for our lives. As we study the history of our Lord and his people Israel, we see His love and mercy to His people throughout all the time. There are several Bible study group in the Uniting Reformed Church Orange Farm.

God made the earth and put us on it with the responsibility of caring for it to the best of our ability.
