Building Friendships - One of the best things about small groups is having people in your life who are seeking God just as you are. They can encourage, support and challenge you..
Small groups meet this need by providing a time and place to learn about God, build each other up, and have a lot of fun at the same time. Below are links to groups that you may want to explore and be interested in..
Why should I attend a Small Group?
Small groups at the RUMC exist to help you grow up to full maturity in your relationship with Jesus Christ and others. You may be doing great in your Christian walk right now, but by being in relationship with fellow believers, you will experience even more of the abundant life Jesus has to offer. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 says, Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: if one falls down, his friend can help him up. If you are ready to connect with other people, belong to something life-changing, and grow in Christ through relationships with other believers, then maybe it's time to get involved in a small group!
What is a Small Group?
A small group is typically made up of three or more who meet regularly during the week to share about their lives, support one another, pray together, worship God, and study biblical truths. Each group has a host and a leader (or one person may host and lead). Groups meet in a number of different locations around Winnebago County Area, including coffee shops, restaurants, the church, and work places, but typically they meet in homes. Most groups meet weekly during evening hours, but some meet bi-weekly, such as our Moms' Groups, and some meet in the morning or afternoon. Our goal is to accommodate the different needs of those in our church by offering a variety of options.
How do I find a Small Group?
It is as easy as A,B,C- Look through our directory and find a group or two that suit your schedule and interests. Then call or email the host or leader to get more information about the group. After you get directions and details, just show up and check it out! You can also sign up for a group online and the leader of the group will contact you shortly. Hopefully, you'll feel right at home with the first group you visit, but you may want to visit several groups before you find the group that's right for you. If you feel a little nervous or unsure, just stick with it - you'll be happy you did!
