One of the early changes that Jonathan introduced involved Wednesday night Bible study. One member recalls that when Jonathan announced that he wanted to initiate small groups on Wednesday night after the meal that she was downright skeptical and not too happy, firmly believing that this will never work. However, she, like many, many others, has come to delight in our small groups that meet on Wednesday nights. Wednesday nights – it ’ s just one ministry that we could easily take for granted,
