God Is Love
The First Letter of John
Bible Study
“Beloved, let us love one another, because love is from God; everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and God’s love is perfected in us.”
1 John 4: 7, 11-12
Please join with us for an interactive and engaging bible study on the First Letter of John known widely as the “Epistle of Love.”
Lead by Dr. Jonathan Juilfs, a parishioner at St. John’s and professor of English and Medieval Studies at Redeemer University, and assisted by the Rector.
We will meet for 4 Wednesday evenings in May (skipping May 29 due to the Canadian Open).
The bible study begins at 7 pm in the Gathering Space and concludes with Compline (Night Prayers) in the Church Chancel at 8:15 pm.
All are welcome ~ Parishioners, family, friends, neighbours, and NO previous experience in bible study is required. Please register in the office at admin@ancasteranglican.org or at 905-648-2353 or sign up on one of the rosters located at our downstairs entrance and near the church entrance by the chapel.
