Small Groups for Spiritual Growth at Westminster

“Small Groups” may sound generic, but they mean something very specific at Westminster:

An intentional face-to-face gathering of 10 or fewer people on a regular time schedule with the common purpose of building relationships with each other and God.

Small Groups provide:

	A place to know and be known in a supportive environment (beyond family or work)
	A place to explore with others how to integrate what we believe with what we do.
	A supportive environment for struggle, change and decision

Small Groups accomplish this by:

	Meeting about twice a month
	Discussing books, articles, or movies of substance
	Doing lots of talking and listening
	Sharing refreshments
	Offering prayer and support
	Engaging in service projects.

The books, the projects, the structure of each group are determined by its members and its lay leader (not a pastor). We currently have 9 active Small Groups, each one is quite unique. . Some have been meeting for as long as twelve years, others have just started. New ones can be formed at any time. Just e-mail Laurie@westminsterdayton.org if you are interested.
