Every circle, and who it's for
Most women start with one and stay for years. You can visit any circle twice before you decide, and nobody will ask you to sign anything.

Before your first visit
What women usually ask
I don't know much about the Bible. Is that all right?
Completely. Every table has someone who has never read 1 Samuel and someone who has read it forty times. Both are useful.
Do I have to belong to a church?
No. About one woman in eight doesn't have a church right now. We're glad you're here.
What does it cost?
Nothing. Study books are $14 if you'd like one, and free if you'd rather not say why.
Where do I park?
On 15th Street or in the lot behind Peoria Avenue Baptist, who kindly lend it to us on weekdays. The front steps have a rail; there's a step-free entrance from the side garden.
