Along our journey of Discipleship, we are called to Connect with One Another. Â We encourage our Hope family to build regular connections with people in numerous ways. Â
These groups are open to anyone who might like to attend regularly or drop in as your schedule allows. Â During the meeting time, participants are encouraged to socialize, get to know one another, share a spiritual lesson or story, and depart refreshed and renewed in their weekly walk with Jesus.
These groups are made up of 5-12 people meeting regularly at a group-specified location. Â During these meetings, participants are encouraged to focus around a spiritual lesson, connect and support each other, and, as a group, participate in social events and service projects. Â
The best way to get connected to a small group is through the Social & Spirit Groups.
In this Quick Start guide, you'll find three different suggestions for how to structure small group meetings.
These groups are made up of 2-4 people meeting regularly. Â During these meetings, time is spent connecting to each other in deeper conversation, sharing wins and challenges, lifting and supporting each other, helping each other in their spiritual walk. Â These groups form both naturally with people already in our lives (spouse, siblings, friends) and intentionally through people we ask to join us.
The best way to get connected in a Micro Group relationship is look around at those who are already in your inner circle of family, friends, work colleagues, volunteer groups, social clubs, etc. Â Foster these Micro relationships through adding a spiritual connection during meetups, asking and sharing personal successes and challenges in your spiritual walks.
