We encourage everyone,
Christian or not, to get involved in a CARE Group. CARE Groups provide the
encouragement, accountability and support we all need to live our lives. We
need this because we learn and grow in relationship.
We also believe that small
groups are the model for how the church is to function in relationship with God
and each other
(Acts 2:42-47, Hebrews 10:25).
Small groups become Jesus' model for discipleship by:
- Developing
meaningful relationships.
- Growing in
faith and the personal application of God's word.
- Shepherding
people and ministering to their needs.
- Holding each
other accountable to the work and grace of God in our lives.
Jesus modeled for us the
importance of a small group when He met with the twelve disciples. Small groups
are an essential part of Christian growth. People will be best brought to
wholeness and maturity within an atmosphere of honest and open relationships.
This occurs most effectively when men and women commit to meeting weekly with each other in
their homes.
Our CARE Groups intentionally care for those
within the group and always tries to reach those who are not yet connected. These
groups serve as a vital means for discipleship. If you would like more
information or would like to find a small group near you, please contact the
community pastor in your area:
