Learning

We value hearts, hands, and minds, and seek to support growth for all ages and stages as our faith unfolds.  On Monday nights we host a programme of in-depth study, EFM, at which members of a number of churches study.

We have regular opportunity for Bible study, and an annual Lenten series.  There are classes for confirmation or those seeking to renew their commitment in the church.  Our rector believes the possibilities for learning are always available and so workshops and various series are scheduled through the year as need and ability allow.

There are always opportunities throughout our lives which can lead us to explore our faith and understanding in new ways.  The Rector encourages these times of reflection and discovery, and is more than happy to serve as a resource, conversation partner or facilitator.

From The Phoenix Affirmations:

•    Christian love of neighbour includes “Engaging people authentically, as Jesus did, treating all as creations made in God’s very image, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, age, physical or mental ability, nationality, or economic class.”      (1 of 4 affirmations)
•    Christian love of self includes “Basing our lives on the faith that, in Christ, all things are made new, and that we, and all people, are loved beyond our wildest imagination – for eternity.”
