WHY NOT JOIN A LIFE GROUP?

There are several Life Groups running in our church, and we are looking for more people to join and expand our existing groups.

WHAT IS A LIFE GROUP? IS IT FOR ME?

Life Groups are about helping each other to live LIFE God’s way – working out what it means to be disciples of Jesus today, and connecting our faith to the whole of life. It’s a great way to grow in your faith and to develop new friendships with people from a wide range of ages, backgrounds, and Christian experience.

Our Life Groups meet weekly, each with about 6-10 members. Although each group looks slightly different, the meetings are always based on the “4Ws”:

  • Welcome      Building relationships between group members
  • Worship        Keeping our attention focussed on God
  • Word             Listening to God speak to us through the Bible
  • Witness         Allowing God to work through us in the way we live

We have both daytime and evening groups. Some groups meet mainly or completely online, others in homes or in the Oak Room. Something for everyone!

We would love more people to be involved in Life Groups, so if you would like to know more please speak to Janet Shackleton or Revd Ben, or email church office.

Mothers’ Union Holy Communionwill be held in the Oak Room on Wednesday 12th January at 10.30am.Everyone is welcome.

 

Bart’s Butterflieswill return onThursday 13th January at 1.45pm at Victory Hall, Lower Penn. There is plenty of parking.All are welcome.

Mothers’ Union

After the enforced ‘break’ we are returning to our regular meetings on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 2.30pm in the Oak Room. We begin on 18th January with our AGM. Visitors are always most welcome.
