Small Groups
The first time you come to a worship service at Living Waters Fellowship you may enjoy the music and the message, but will you be known? Will you be able to share your needs or burdens with anyone? Probably not. Will it be because our church body was unloving or insensitive? We hope not! It is probably because the greater the number of people gathered together into one group, the less they are able to know each other. Conversely, the fewer the people in a gathering, the more they can know each other personally. This is the role that a small group can play in your Christian growth.
What is a small group?
A Christian small group is an intentional, face to face gathering of 3 to 13 adults meeting regularly for the common purpose of exploring and growing in all the possibilities of life in Christ.
So what is the purpose of a small group?
Our small group ministry exists so you might experience caring, nurturing relationships within our church community and that each group member might know Christ, grow in Christ, and go in Christ’s name to others outside the group.
Don’t take our word for it!
Here’s what others have said about the small groups at Living Waters:
I have truly enjoyed small groups. It has really helped me to get to know our church individuals much better. I also really appreciate the input of the new believers in our group and their fresh out look on Christian life, experience, and growth. - Molly
I know God has used our small group nights to cultivate a desire for spiritual growth and accountability in me. The bond that I have enjoyed with this group has been amazing as we have learned to bear each other’s burdens, pray, and encourage each other weekly. - Danielle
Small group is just what I need in the middle of the week, it allows me to relax and enjoy fellowship with my new church friends/family. Having the small group is such an encouragement for me, because I know not only is God present, but I also have the helping hands of the group! - Kara
It’s not about attending…its about belonging to something very special. It has addressed the nitty gritty of my Christian walk. - Jon
Small Group meeting is the most important night of my week, hands down. I love it. - Josh
