Rae Gravley's series from North Park continues...

A popular weekly activity sponsored by the North Park Friendship House is a women’s Bible study group. The group and the studies change as people move in and out. One woman who was invited to come says she was initially very wary of Bible study and Christians. When she finally came to the group, she sat quietly for a while and just observed. Eventually, she says she realized that not all Christians are “crazy” and that she could perhaps even “be” one and take part in the group. When she decided to be baptized, she wanted the leader of the Bible study group to baptize her. “You were the one who told me about Jesus, so you should be the one to baptize me. I want to be like you all,” she said. Now she leads a group in her home and loves the relationships she has with her neighbors.
