Why Small Groups?
Small Groups are a great way to get connected and grow in your faith! Whether you’re new to the church and just want to meet some people, or have been around for a long time and want to grow in your faith, joining a small group could be just the thing that’s been missing for you.
We believe that spiritual growth happens best in the context of community and our desire is that everyone who comes to SLWC would be connected with other Christians, and with God’s Word.
There’s something unique that happens when people trying to head in the same direction with their faith come together to study the Bible, encourage each other, pray with each other, and do life together that doesn’t tend to happen anywhere else. As a church we strongly encourage people to join a small group because we know that it truly is a life-changing experience!
How do I get in a group?
There are several ways people get in small groups at our church:
- Through a personal invitation
This is the best way for it to happen. Groups are all about relationships, so we ask our groups to be inviting people in to fill the open chair.
- Sign-ups
From time to time, we have sign-ups on Sunday to make it as easy as possible to get in a group.
- Filling out the Small Groups Connection Card online or at the Welcome Center
- Contacting the Connections Facilitator, Terri Stewart or calling 842.9022 x308 and say "I'm interested in joining a group."
The Community Life Department is here to help you make connections like the small group one. We're committed to helping you get plugged in and involved. Let us know if there's any way we can help along the way.
