Frequently Asked Questions 1. * Where do Small Groups meet? How long? Small groups typically meet in someone’s home. Groups last 90 minutes and tend to meet on weeknights (Monday - Thursday). * Is there homework for Groups? Not really. However, your attendance at weekly worship and the groups should inspire you to investigate God’s Word and reflect upon your life. It may also motivate you to study deeper into the things being discussed. By the time you get to small group, you will most likely have things that you will want to share with the group. * What types of groups are there? We offer groups for couples, men, women, moms and high school students. * Do you meet during the summer? Groups tend to meet less frequently during the summer. As a church we like to have small groups use this time to be in the community. This is a chance for your groups to do activities outside that are fun and also engage with others.
