There’s no better way to grow as a Christian than through studying God’s word and meeting with other Christians to encourage one another.

Several local churches run small group Bible studies or courses for international students.  A typical group would be made up of 5-10 students and one or two leaders.  Usually you’ll stay with your group all year, so it’s a great opportunity to build some really good friendships.

Bible study groups give you the opportunity to study God’s word and learn together as you look at one passage of scripture each week.  In most groups there is also time to pray together and encourage one another in evangelism. No qualifications are needed. Just pick one and come along!

On the left we have listed churches that organize Bible study groups specifically for international student.  In addition other churches would be glad to welcome you into one of their regular church Bible study groups.

If you have never studied the Bible before or want to investigate the Christian faith can we recommend joining a group for those investigating the Christian faith.
