"And they devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching" Groups have an element of leaning from the Bible. Some use video based teaching and others go though study books or books of the Bible.
"And they devoted themselves to ... the fellowship" Genuine fellowship and connection to one other is fostered in our groups. This is a place to be who you are.
"They received their food with glad and generous hearts" Relational connection and trust is fostered by sharing food together. Groups always have snacks and sometimes have meals.
"And they devoted themselves to ... the prayers" Group members count it a great privilege to pray for one another, both at group meetings and during the week.
"And awe came upon every soul" Some groups may sing together, but there is a deeper worship and trust for God that develops out of spending time in the Bible in community.
"Distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need" If anyone has a need we believe that their small group should work together to help meet the need.
"Attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes" We intentionally seek to meet in homes following the early church pattern of corporate worship together on the weekend and smaller gatherings in homes during the week.
"The Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved." We desire that group would always have an empty chair, praying about and inviting friends, neighbors, and coworkers to join their group.
