In addition to our Sunday gatherings, we are a church that loves to meet together at every opportunity to grow in our knowledge and love of Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. We love to meet with those who are exploring the Christian faith so that they can grow in knowing the claims of Jesus and his relevance in their lives. We love to meet with those who are currently following Jesus so that together we might grow in the joy of knowing him and
serving him in our lives. Generally, these meetings take the form of Growth Groups or one-to-one meetings around the Bible.
serving him in our lives. Generally, these meetings take the form of Growth Groups or one-to-one meetings around the Bible.
Growth GroupGrowth Groups are smaller groups of people who meet together to help each other grow in Christian maturity and are a wonderful way to get to know others in our church family. In these groups, we read and discuss the Bible, pray in light of the things we are learning and encourage each other in putting Jesus as first in our hearts and lives. These groups meet in homes on different days of the week, usually in the evenings. Each congregation has a network of Growth Groups that are meeting together, and we would love for you to join one.

One-to-onesAs its name suggests, one-to-one meetings involve one person meeting with another person to read the Bible, pray and encourage each other in the faith. Such one-to-one meetings are very flexible. They can be done in a café, in a home or in a park. They can be short term or long term. They can go through a book of the Bible or think about a topic in the light of the Bible. They can be organised with a pastor or one of our Parishioners. But they are wonderful ways to grow in Christian maturity and in friendship with others at church.
