It is. a ladies interdenominational Christian Bible discussion group. The, two-hour programallows women to come together in mem- ber's homes during Tuesdays and Wednesdays. During the first hour members make grape vinery, quilted pictures, wall haugings and manyI other "newcrçift ideae that the women think of togeth er. " Or the ladies participate in exercises. The second hour is devoted to Bible discussion. "We take certain verses from the Old and New Testament, and find topies that relate to our society- today," says Stogios.
