G.R.O.W Groups
But GROW in the grace and Knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen (2 Peter 3:18)
What is GROW? Christianity is a continuous journey of being transformed by the Holy Spirit into Christ's likeness, experiencing and expressing love for God and others. GROW (God's Word, Relationships, Obedient Living, and Worship) is a framework for this journey.
God's Word teaches us, not just the importance, but the necessity of body life( Relationships) for our growth as disciples (Obedient living) of Jesus Christ - small groups are an essential key to body life. Our Deacon Board, in conjunction with our Christian Education Board, are establishing a three semester calendar year in which we will offer GROW groups throughout the year; Fall, Spring and Summer. The fall GROW Groups will begin the week of September 25th. We encourage you to check out one of our seven Fall 2011 GROW Groups. From students to adults, small groups encourage spiritual growth and inspire significant relationships.
Our GROW Groups of 10 to 15 members will typically meet for 8 - 12 weeks during each semester. During these weeks you will connect with others, have opportunity to share your experiences and passions and build new relationships through conversation, service and life.
Signups are easy. Start by looking over the list of groups offered HERE. What kind of group are you looking for at this season of life? Do you want to study a certain topic or a book of the Bible? Is a certain day of the week better than another? Is childcare an issue? Find a group that looks like a good fit and sign up. You'll be glad you did.
GROW Group signups begin Sunday September 11. Signup online, at the Welcome Center in the entry way or filling out the form in the bulletine insert and dropping it in the offering our at the Welcome Center.
