Christian Education
ONLINE IN A TIME OF ISOLATION
Contact us for more information for online meeting time and link. We'll be using "Zoom" (you can download the app to your computer or device in advance, here) - it even works well on smartphones!
An archive of previous programs we've used at Gloria Dei can be found here.
ADULT CHRISTIAN ED
Currently, we are reading the book "Dear Church" by Rev. Lenny Duncan.
CONFIRMATION
This is a two-year program on the basics of our Christian faith, through a Lutheran lens! Students usually begin the program in grade eight.
We offer this program in tandem with St Mark's and Faith Lutheran churches.
We follow the Colaborate curriculum.
CHILDREN'S PROGRAM
Some resources for downloading and using at home available here.
A Palm Sunday resource available here.
A video about Palm Sunday and Maundy Thursday, here.
A video about Good Friday and Easter, here.
While not Christian education, per se, this link will take you to some learning opportunities from the Canadian Museum for Human Rights, which certainly have overlapping values with our faith!
