Studies and Groups

Bible Study – Tending the Wild Garden

This Bible study runs weekly from September 29 – December 11 in Grace’s Chapel.

Weekly on Sunday mornings, 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM

“The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.”  – Galatians 5:22-23a

What does a life filled with the Spirit of Christ look like in the world? Paul describes it as a life that bears fruit, a life that reflects Christ’s image, a life that is blessed and transformed and is a blessing to others.

Join Rev. Chris in a study of the fruits of the Spirit, using a new book by Presbyterian minister Eugenia Gamble, “Tending the Wild Garden: Growing in the Fruit of the Spirit.” Each chapter will explore one of the fruits Paul writes about in Galatians.  There are also six daily devotions as part of each chapter, containing daily scripture, reflections, and spiritual practices. Books will be provided.

We intend our studies to help you discover and deepen your faith. We offer several programs throughout the year, including new members’ classes, Bible or book studies. We also host educational events, including the annual Preaching Grace Event (www.preachinggrace.ca) that typically happens in the spring.

The opportunities intentionally vary in size of group and approach to respond to different interests and comfort levels.
