In-Person Bible Study

In-person Bible study near you in BC

Meet face to face with a friendly study partner in your home, a library or a quiet café. One-on-one, as a couple, or with a few friends.

There's something special about opening the Bible side by side

For many people, the best way to study is in person: turning the same pages, sharing a cup of tea, and talking freely. With an in-person Bible study from Bible Study BC, a friendly volunteer study partner will meet you at a time and place that's comfortable for you.

Most studies take place in the participant's own home, but we're just as happy to meet at a local library, a community centre or a quiet café. You can study one-on-one, as a couple, with your family, or invite a few friends and neighbours to make it a small group.

In-person studies are available where we have study partners nearby, especially in Metro Vancouver, the Fraser Valley, the Okanagan and Vancouver Island. If there isn't anyone close to you yet, we'll start online and let you know as soon as an in-person option opens up.
