Small Group Ministry 2023-2024
Small Group Ministry is a form of shared ministry that encourages spiritual growth and the development of deep and substantive relationships. Small Group Ministry meets our needs for belonging (intimacy) and meaning (ultimacy). It builds friendships and provides opportunities to talk with others about the big questions of life.  Small groups are designed to enrich our community with the sort of conversation and attentiveness that can be difficult in the busy life of a growing congregation. A small group experience nurtures each person’s spiritual growth, empowering them to live their lives with intention and authenticity.
We have three kinds of Small Group Ministry: Soul Matters, Creativity Matters, and Connection Circle.
