Lenten Series 2010

Signs on the Way

The Bibles studies we offer this year are prepared by the same international team of people who were responsible for the Bible studies at the Lambeth Conference, held in Canterbury England in July and August 2008. The studies focus on the 'signs' carried out by Jesus in the Gospel of St. John. These New Testament biblical signs take us to the heart of Jesus' ministry and mission. John 20:30-31 says; 'Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of this disciples, which are not written in this book. But these are written so that you may come to believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, in through believing you may have life in his name'. Life in this Gospel includes material, physical and spiritual dimensions. Come and learn what Christ has in store for you.
