Small groups are at the core of who we are as a church and are an area where we desire to grow as well. We gather for Bible study, discussion of books, for fellowship and sharing and for prayer. All can be important parts of a small group experience but the bottom line is that a small group is where we become friends, where we connect and really get to know and love one another.
