Currently, three evenings a week, smaller gatherings occur at Opawa Baptist.
Tuesday is Espresso, a conversational congregation. Over the last two years, it has provided a place for those inside and outside Christian faith to talk, argue, learn and laugh together.
How to Read the Bible is an eight-week block course on a Wednesday, that includes people at a variety of places on their faith journey wanting to learn more about the Bible.
Sense making faith is on a Thursday and has a different set of participants, who bring with them existing spiritual experiences, often from outside of organised religion.
Each of these groups has a different interest, funds a different type of conversation, engages with a different way of spiritually searching - a questioning place, a thinking place, an experiencing place.
We are offering a variety of ways for people to find, and grow in, faith in Jesus. A variety of ways for people to learn more about God, the Bible, themselves. (And as such, a variety of ways for people to find us at Opawa Baptist Church.)
We provide multiple spaces, multiple options, so that people are not offered a "one size fits all" spiritual-growth path, but a variety of ways to continue their search, to grow in their relationship with God.
