A Christian is not born, but is formed.  We are formed through worship, lives of service, and Christian education.  It is vital to the ongoing growth of our faith that we engage in the reading of Scripture and books that explore the nature of faith.  Every year, the Parish of Tyendinaga has seasonal studies in Lent and Advent and usually a couple more times during the year.  A women's study group has met every other week since 2006 and has studied a significant portion of the Bible and several books.

Parish studies have included:

• Gospel of John

• Gospel of Mark

• Letter to the Hebrews

• Infancy Narratives of Jesus (from Matthew and Luke)

• Psalm 23

• The Shack, William P Young

• God is Closer Than You Think, John Ortberg

• The Seven Last Words of Jesus

• The Ten Commandments

• Foundations of Faith (an introduction to Scripture and the Church)

• Field Trip to the Royal Ontario Museum to see the Dead Sea Scrolls

• Holy Land Travelogue with photos and Scripture quotations

Anyone with an idea for a study is invited to consult with the Rector.  Although the Rector leads the formal Parish Bible studies, anyone who feels comfortable may lead a group in study.  The Rector will support and, from time to time, check in with the study to see how things are going.

Upcoming Christian Education events will be listed below and on the Parish News & Events page.  Check back often for updates!
