Growth Groups Have 3 Purposes:
- Grow in love for God
- Grow in love for one another
- Grow in maturity
When Can I Join A Growth Group?
Each year is broken into quarters which have approximately 10 weeks (the first quarter, though longer, starts late and ends early):
- September to December
- January to March
- April to June
- July to August (groups take a break)
The beginning of each quarter has an ‘onramp’ in which groups with space open for new members, in which each person will be asked to commit, as far as is possible with them, to be at every meeting that quarter. The end of each quarter has an ‘offramp’ for all who want to find a new group or take a break from groups altogether with no strings attached. A healthy group requires a balance of commitment and flexibility, which is what this quarterly system seeks to accomplish.
A New Additional Group Concept
As of September 2024, you will see The Man Co. and The Woman Co. groups. These are based off of Titus 2 in which the older men and teaching the younger men, and the older women, the younger women. These groups are primarily for fathers/sons and mothers/daughters, but others - younger men and women without Christian parents and older men/women who don't have sons or daughters and want to pour into younger men and women - are welcome to join as well. We will study Scripture together, go over life skills prevelent for men and women, and have fun events along the way.
