Are you curious about the Bible?

Some students are curious about the Bible. If you are interested in attending a one hour Bible discussion at a time that works for you every week for four weeks, you can talk to James. It would be a no-pressure discussion for students who are new to the Bible.

Tea or Coffee

James and Ann love going out for tea or coffee with new students. You can reach James at jsiebert@ivcf.ca or 780-686-3332. Ann can be reached at asiebert@ivcf.ca or 780-686-9991.
