SMALL GROUPS: REFORMING AND FORMING

It’s the fall and that means established Small Groups are getting re-started and new groups are forming.  The goal of every true follower of Jesus Christ is to become like Him, fulfilling His purposes within the Community of His Church.  To meet that goal, small groups are essential.  Small groups offer true community, encouragement for the soul and deep satisfying truth from God’s word.  Small groups are a great way to become closer to other believers and to Christ.  Indicate your interest by signing up for a small group using the pew pad or calling/emailing the church office
