Belonging to a supportive and caring community
Small Groups is a program in which groups of church members meet on a regular basis for fellowship. Joining a small group is an opportunity to be in closer fellowship with
other church members and
a chance to form a more intimate community of sharing.
The Goals of Small Groups are:
- to nurture a community where people can develop intimate, personal relationships with others and be encouraged to grow in their faith;
- to foster a spirit of celebration and joy through prayer, singing, laughter, and fellowship;
- to explore the Word of God in Scripture, liturgy, devotional resources, and each other;
- to develop a concern and empathy for those who are struggling in our communities and outside our communities; and,
- to encourage active service.
Living in a large, urban environment can often mean that our lives are
fast-paced and frantic,
lacking the time to develop quality relationships. There are so many people
we relate to on a daily
basis that it is often easier to give each person their due and no more. We
often act the same way
in church, giving only so much of our time for Sunday worship and other
church activities. We
miss the chance to fellowship with others. Small groups is an opportunity to belong to a supportive and caring
community!
