What is a Life Group?
- A Life Group is a small group! Between 3-12 adults who meet regularly together for the purpose of mutual encouragement, study, prayer, practical support and fun (!) as fellow members of the family of God.
- Life Groups meet in circles where the focus is on everyone is able to participate. Large groups are more organized for presentations where the focus is one primary speaker and/or event.
- A Life Group is an extended spiritual family! “God sets the lonely in families.” (Psalm 68:6)
- Life Groups are vital ways in which discipleship or “friendship ministry” can be practiced on a daily basis among fellow members of the Church (Eph. 4:15-16)
- Life Groups are the way in which we provide pastoral care for the Lord’s flock at CFA. (1 Peter 5:2-4; Matthew 9:36-38)
- Children in Life Group: Children’s Ministries will endeavor to provide age appropriate group materials to coordinate with Life Group schedules, either in the host’s home, at a different group member’s home, or at the church (unless the group determines that each family will provide for their own child care needs).
