WHY SMALL GROUPS?......
Jesus demonstrated the importance of “small groups” by forming one himself and spending three years with these privileged disciples. Obviously Jesus knew what he was doing when he formed such a group. These individuals eventually went out and trained others to do likewise. Through small groups we develop meaningful and vital relationships with others as we become a living example of the ”Body of Christ.”
SUNDAY MORNING GROUPS 9:30 – 10:30*
These small groups help us to enhance friendships, provide care for one another and understand God’s word through study. Each group incorporates social and mission projects.
