At the Women’s Bible Studies, you’ll find a supportive and encouraging group of women of all ages ready to get to know you as they get to know the Bible. There is no homework, and you can join any week. VPC’s Director of Adult Discipleship, Kim Pattianakotta, along with team teachers, Currie Renwick and Meghan Reeves, develop lessons with a rich combination of theological insight, historical context, and practical examples for living our faith. Each week, the time together begins with fellowship and a large group teaching, then breaks into small group discussion to further develop relationships and share insights. The women of WBS look forward to meeting you!
New Teaching Series Begins on January 26 & 27: The Spirit Who…
Exploring the Presence of the Holy Spirit in Our Lives
Everyone wonders about the Holy Spirit, and whether the Spirit is really present. The Spirit Who explores how the Holy Spirit speaks, guides, empowers, and dwells among God’s people. Through key stories from the Old and New Testaments, we’ll see the Spirit at work in people’s lives and learn to recognize that same presence in our own lives today.

Meet the Teachers
Kim Pattianakotta is VPC’s Director of Adult Discipleship. With over seventeen years of ministry experience cultivating group environments, Kim loves to draw people into an engagement with Scripture that flows into the reality of their everyday lives. Along with her passion for Biblical study, she regularly draws from her academic backgrounds in teaching and sociology to facilitate lessons that incorporate different learning styles and are relevant to our cultural experiences.
Currie Renwick and her husband, David, have lived in DC since 2011, where she served as a librarian in the DC Public Schools and where David was Senior Pastor at National Presbyterian Church. Following retirement in 2022, Currie and David have found a welcoming church home at VPC. Currie has taught adult Sunday School classes for women and men for over 30 years. She’s looking forward to learning with Kim, Meghan, and other WBS members!
Meghan Reeves and her family are thankful to call Vienna their home after many years of constant moving and living overseas. While most recently living in San Diego, Meghan taught women’s Bible studies and was the Moms’ Connection Coordinator at their previous church. As a former high school history teacher, diving into the Bible’s context and connecting themes of God’s constant love and provision is a passion Meghan loves to pour into her teaching. She is thrilled for this opportunity to draw closer to the hope and peace that is Jesus while growing together with the women of VPC in our upcoming study.
