Lent Course from Bible Remixed and the Diocese of Toronto

“The Way of the Cross and a Crucified People: On the Ground in Palestine,” led by Dr. Sylvia Keesmaat with Bishop Andrew Asbil.
This journey to the cross will deeply ground us in Jesus' passion as seen in today's world. This is a free study, generously funded by the Diocese of Toronto.
This study will be held on Sunday evenings:
February 22, March 1, 8, 15, 22, and 29, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. EST.
To learn more and to register, visit www.bibleremixed.ca or register here.
Each session will run on Zoom for two hours, with a five-minute break halfway through. Each session will include Bible study, stories from current realities—particularly in Palestine but also in our wider context, liturgy, and questions for Lenten reflection.
