HOME Groups are small groups of people in various stages of Christian spiritual
development, who meet in homes in their own neighborhoods to develop positive
relationships with God and with others. Group members can freely express
personal feelings, regardless of background or circumstances. They can discuss
life's many issues in a confidential, encouraging environment, as they seek
answers from a Biblical perspective.
HOME
Groups enable people to enjoy the support and friendship of other believers, as
they discover that God is actively working in their lives in very personal ways.

The model
for having home groups exist is found in the Bible:
"So
continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to
house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God
and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily
those who were being saved."
--Acts 2:46-47
We encourage each of our members to become a part of a HOME
Group. If there are no HOME Groups available that suit your area of interest, it
could be that God is calling you to lead a HOME group.

In a HOME Group
Atmosphere, We Experience:
Discussion of the scriptures as they relate to life,
yet it is not a Bible Study.
Prayer for special needs,
yet it is not a prayer meeting.
Encouragement given, yet
it is not a support group.
A wonderful time had by
all, yet it is not a social event.
True friendship develops,
yet it is not a social club.
God's Presence, yet it is
not a church service.
