Small is the new BIG!

In Small Groups you get to:
* Connect with other youth without being part of "the crowd."
* Grow more meaningfully in your faith.
* Ask your questions in a safe environment.
* Study the Bible in depth.
* Be mentored by an adult leader.
* Learn more about yourself, others and God.

We believe that smaller is BIGGER! Followers of Jesus should make Small Groups an integral part of their faith journey. It is only when we meet together to "One-Another" that we reflect our desire to be faithful to God's call in our community. In the New Testament we find "One-Another" statements that challenge us to truly live in community with one another:

Honor One Another Above Yourselves (Rom 12:10) “Honor one another above yourselves.”

Fellowship With One Another (1 John 1:7) “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.”
