Life Groups
What are Life Groups?
Life Groups are small groups of between 10-15 people which meet in homes, the church building or online. Their purpose is to build up our life in Christ, hence the name; “life” groups.
These groups meet regularly to share in Bible study, fellowship, and prayer. They are a place to grow spiritually and to meet one another's needs in a way which isn't always possible in a large group such as a Sunday meeting. They provide an opportunity to get to know people and to serve others.
Your Life Group leader can offer support and help you connect with others across the fellowship. Coffee and cake are known to feature in Life Groups!
Why attend a Life Group?
- Grow closer to God through discipleship
- Build healthy and encouraging Christian relationships
- Discover how Christ wants you to serve Him
- Grow in your knowledge of the Bible
- Grow your prayer life
- Engage in mission
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to attend my life group every week?
There is no pressure to be present every week at Life Group - a register is not taken! However, we would encourage everyone to commit to reguarly attending to get the most out of the group - this may be fornightly or monthly for some people.
Can I bring my children to life group?
While life groups are not designed for children, they are welcome to attend with their parent(s). Please check with the Life Group leader. Our daytime life group welcomes young children and has space to play and toys. We also have midweek children's and youth groups.
Do I have to be attending on a Sunday or Wednesday to be part of a life group?
Not necessarily! We recognise that some people may need the support of a Life Group more than a Sunday Service. Please contact us and we'll take it from there!
I'm aged 18-30, do I have to attend the Young Adults' life group?
No. Our life groups all have their own characters. It's important you find the one that you feel comfortable attending and being part of.
