Community Groups have four basic goals:
- Spiritual Growth. While corporate gathering is important, the small group setting is best for growth and creative community service projects.
- A Network of Care. Community Groups should be THE place of support for people going through hardship.
- Relational Development. Since you can only get so friendly at church, Community Groups are where real relationships are developed.
- Just Plain Fun. Community Groups are a place of refuge and fun.
All Community Groups are autonomous and choose their own studies. All prospective leaders of Community Groups must be vetted by C3 leaders. Community Groups may either be “open” which means they welcome new people; or “closed” due to the sensitivity of topics covered.
If you are interested in starting a new Group, call to set up a meeting with a pastor. If you qualify, then Julie Brown (jabnut@verizon.net)will publish your group (if “open”).
If you feel under-qualified to lead, facilitator training is available. If you aren’t interested inleading but just want to join one, see the Welcome Center.
