ESL classes with Rev. Chandra Mannix, every Tuesday at 1:00 PM: Join us in the CKPC library to develop conversational English skills and expand verbal fluency. Expand your vocabulary while improving pronunciation, engaging in topics around daily life, faith, history and travel. And classes are free!!
Bible Study with Denis Mascardelli, every Wednesday at 10 AM starting Sept. 11: This year we will be examining Paul’s two letters to the Thessalonian church, sometimes referred to as the eschatological letters of Paul,…though there is much besides eschatology (the doctrine of last things). No homework is required, just bring a Bible and participate in the discussions as much or as little as you are comfortable with.
Prayer and Share with Ann Frost, every Wednesday 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM starting Sept. 18: We invite you to connect with God quietly, away from the crowds. Find a peaceful place to renew your body, mind, and spirit. Share your wisdom. There will be a gentle rhythm of time in the labyrinth, time in the sanctuary, time alone, and time together to pray. You are welcome to come to some or all of this time each week.
Bible Study with Rev. Chandra Mannix, every Thursday at 5:30 PM: The Book of Hebrews offers encouragement in our faith in the face of challenges. Join us in the St. Giles library to delve deeper into scripture and its application to your life in Christ. No homework is required, just bring a Bible and participate in the discussions as much or as little as you are comfortable with.
Faith Exploration with Rev. Chandra Mannix, every Thursday at 7 PM: Do you have questions about scripture or Christian beliefs and how they apply in our daily lives? What about questions that never seem to find the right time or place to be asked? Gather to discuss various topics, including the hard ones, that will help us understand better our walk through this world. A light dinner is offered at the start of the conversation.
The Labyrinth Café @ St. Giles with Susan Carmichael, every Friday 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM: We welcome guests to the narthex and back garden (weather permitting) to help us build relationships with our neighbours in the surrounding community in a welcoming setting with homemade goodies and a visit.
