Small Groups
Small Groups provide an opportunity for people to make friends, grow in their faith and discuss life together in a smaller setting than the Sunday Service.
They are informal, friendly and supportive, providing an ideal setting in which to meet new people.
Groups run throughout the week so please contact the church office to find out more, or speak to one of the small group leaders on a Sunday.
Who are we and when do we meet?
Monday – Weekly at 7.30pm
EZEKIEL, this group is designed to help and enable anyone who wants to discover more about following Jesus. It’s ideally suited for anyone who would like to understand more about Jesus, life and the Christian faith. You will find it
a genuinely safe space to ask all the questions you have.
Led by Helen Coppenhall & Rebecca Holland
Monday – 2nd and 4th of the month at 7.30pm
We presently have eight members and start our meetings with a cuppa and chat, and finish in prayer. In between, we study Bible passages and how to live the Christian Life, sometimes using DVD led study guides.
Led by Mark & Carolyn Barker
Monday – Fortnightly at 8:30pm
MSG, we meet fortnightly at 8:30pm, a slightly later hour to allow young children to be put to bed. The group which is aimed at those with primarily young families, continues to meet on Zoom, thus removing the need for any additional childcare arrangements, currently our regular attendees are fourteen. We always make time in our meetings to pray together, sharing prayer requests and mutual support. We reserve occasional Monday gatherings for social ‘chat time’ and try to meet together in person when possible.
Led by Simon & Lynda Wisbey
