Home Groups
Home Groups are small transformational communities that meet in homes on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. The goal of Home Groups is to create an environment characterized by authenticity and transparency so that people enter into relationships where they are known, loved, accepted and challenged. As we grow in community we experience:
- Spiritual Formation – community members share progress and encourage each other toward being like Christ.
- Evangelism – community members pray for others who are outside of Christ
- Reproduction - communities welcome newcomers, designate at least one “leader in training”, and plan toward the launching of new groups.
- Volunteerism – communities support the greater body of Christ by getting involved in local church ministries and service opportunities.
- International Missions – communities support at least one international missions project through increased awareness, commitment to prayer, financial contributions, and hands-on involvement.
- Care - communities care for each other by offering practical help to those in difficult and crises situations.
- Extending Compassion – communities commit to on-site projects which meet the social needs of the community at large.
