Men’s Ministry

At St. John’s, we are blessed to have many opportunities to meet with others to study the Bible. Among these are a number of men’s Bible studies, including 3 groups that meet every Tuesday evening at OAC.

We follow the study guides provided by the church which correspond to the weekly sermon series. It has been a great blessing to see men committed to weekly study and prayer coming to a deeper knowledge and experience of God’s love and His desire for service in His kingdom. We have been greatly challenged by the gospel of Mark studies over this past year and in our prayers together are seeking for God to lead us further into practical daily service in His kingdom.

Early in 2022 we said farewell to Dan Gifford as he took up his role as Bishop of our diocese. Although sad that Dan is no longer able to be with us on a weekly basis, we are very thankful for his many years of leadership in the men’s ministry. In the year ahead we hope to have 1 or 2 events that bring together men of our church for fellowship, teaching and prayer. In January we were blessed to have David Short with us for an overview of the second half of Mark’s gospel and were joined for that session by members of several men’s bible study groups at SJV. Our Tuesday evening groups are always open to new joiners and if you are looking for a weekly Bible study, please get in touch through the SJV website or by e-mail to ewan@sjvan.org.
