We grow through listening; we accomplish through love and servanthood.
Small Groups
This year is bringing exciting studies, events and small group ministries to engage and grow us all in faith!
“I give thanks for the rising levels of participation in many small groups, bible studies and fellowship events, and thanksgiving for our team leaders who organize, invite, coordinate, teach and lead. I am convinced the health of our congregation depends on this. Our ability to work together in common mission and our shared faith in Christ will be strengthened and will flourish with each bond of friendship and fellowship made as we serve, and worship, and pray, and study, and play together, in Christ our Lord.” -Pastor Chris

This small group ministry meets in homes and is for parents who have children in college. Whether you are going through this for the first time, or a number of times, we’d love to have you join us, share stories about how to avoid the helicopter parent syndrome, and provide support for each other as we adjust to the empty nest. If you have a number of children who have gone away to college, the wisdom you have gained will surely be valued by the group. Beverages provided. Bring an appetizer to share.
