Small Groups

WHY SMALL GROUPS?

Our aim is to transform ordinary people into passionate followers of Jesus who are fearlessly changing the world. We want to deepen our connection to God the Church and our purpose.

We do this though our larger body meeting in smaller communities, living out the rhythms of journeying with Jesus.

Devotion, prayer, serving in our community, getting free form strongholds, giving sacrificially, sharing our stories with the lost and celebrating.

For groups meeting weekly we have three seasons of groups throughout the year (Fall, Winter and Spring.)
We have groups that meet every two weeks, and groups that meet monthly.

OUR GOAL

To create groups that are both missional and transformational that are impacting our church and our community as true disciples and kingdom builders.
Missional : reaching into our community and personal sphere's of influence creating a change in the spiritual atmosphere and peoples lives.
Transformational : allowing the Holy Spirit to convict and challenge us so we are always growing upward (towards God), inward (being transformed from the inside out) and outward (developing our character to mirror that of Jesus)
We want our community to be blessed, grateful and changed due to the disciples that call Grace Church home.

TYPES OF GROUPS

Grace Groups - people coming together to grow, serve and fulfill their purpose.
