This prayer is said for people when they are baptised for we know that the life of faith is one of change and growth. At Christ Church Cathedral, we offer a variety of opportunities throughout the year for adults (baptized or not) to explore their faith in an open and creative atmosphere. Together, we reflect on our own experiences, study Scripture, and listen to what theologians and scholars have to teach us.
We don't promise to provide easy answers but we do promise good company in the asking of good questions!
Each year, there are opportunities for adults to deepen their faith through the study of central topics of Christian teaching. These courses also serve as preparation for adults and older teens seeking to make a public commitment through baptism, confirmation, reception to the Anglican communion, or reaffirmation of their faith.
A Deeper Well
is a committed small group uniting intellectual and spiritual formation for those who wish to grow in the practice of their faith. For information, contact Deborah.
At the moment, the Cathedral offers several Bible study groups which meet regularly.
Hungry Minds: Bible Study and Supper for Students and Young Adults
Wednesday evenings, 6:00
A joint offering of St. Martha's Chapel and Christ Church Cathedral, this friendly group meets in person; access is through Promenades Cathédrale. Contact Rev. Jean-Daniel. Open to all language groups.
Pain, Partage, et Prière
The French-language sharing and bible study group meets every two weeks at 10.00 a.m. after the 09.00 Eucharist. More information can be found here (en français).
Brown Bag Bible Study: Studying the Scriptures with Mind and Heart
Mondays at noon, on Zoom.
This Bible study, facilitated by Sister Deborah, will take us through the Big Picture, with a focus not so much on learning “about” the Bible, as on discerning how to live our faith guided by its light. We are following Brian McLaren’s We Make the Road by Walking; however, this study is open to anyone, whether they have read ahead or not, whether they can come every week or only occasionally. It is perfect for you if you are new to reading the Bible, or if you wish to deepen your understanding and renew your faith.
The Cathedral also offers short series of 4-6 weeks to coordinate with certain seasons of the faith year.
