    Inquire about the evening class, too!
     
    btw, My dh goes to the evening CBS in Lee County IA.  It starts this week, also, on Thurs. eve (7 pm).  They won't be studying the book of Luke.  Instead they'll be in the Old Testament-several books, including Ecc., I think.  They'll be meeting in Keokuk, in the new First Christian Church/ old Walmart building on Main St. (Its next to the new Walmart building)  The pm CBS doesn't have a childrens' program, but adults are welcome to just show up to it. 
       For the am CBS, its preferred that you call to register- especially if you have kids to bring with you, as they have to make sure they have enough teachers for each group.
     
    CBS is a little different from the typical Bible Study in that we have homework.  There is an at-home portion to the Bible Study each week, in addition to a small group discussion and a lecture.  Its a Bible Study that's set up so that anyone, whether they have an extensive Bible study background, or have never studied the Bible before, can take part and learn a great deal.  
     
    The expected registration fee for adults is $20 for adults, $5/child (I think they only charge for the first 3 kids in a family, if I remember right).  If you're not able to pay the registration fee, you can still join the Bible Study.  This helps to pay for the lessons which cost approximately $80/yr./person.
