Fall Groups Theme UNLOCKED!
It’s here! The Fall Small Group submission link is officially OPEN! To make things easy, I’ve included the link at the bottom of this message. Once you have your group idea ready, just submit your information, and I’ll take care of the rest!
I am SO excited about this fall and all that God has planned for our Small Groups. We already have some amazing new groups in the works, and I truly believe this is going to be a special semester.
I absolutely LOVE this theme for our fall semester. As we transition into a new season, we have an opportunity to GATHER (to gather together, connect with one another, build friendships, and simply do life together). That's what Small Groups are truly all about. Groups are where real relationships happen.
It's where someone can walk into a room not knowing anyone and leave feeling like they belong. It's where conversations happen, prayers are shared, friendships are formed, and people are encouraged to take their next step. As a Group Host, you help create that place.
Your "yes" could be the reason someone finds community. Your living room, your dinner table, your favorite coffee shop, your walking trail, or wherever you choose to gather could become a place where someone's life is changed. You are a part of something bigger! Through Small Groups, next steps happen. Spiritual growth happens. Friendships are made. People find encouragement. Lives are changed.
If you've been thinking about hosting a group this fall, I want to strongly encourage you to say YES! It doesn't have to be complicated, and it doesn't have to be perfect. Think about something you already enjoy doing and invite others to GATHER with you.

If you're continuing your group from a previous semester, adding a new group, or trying something completely different, I would love to have you be part of Fall Small Groups!
Thank you for being willing to serve, lead, open your life to others, and create a place where people can connect. I truly appreciate each one of you, and I'm so thankful that we get to do this together.
If you have questions, need help coming up with a group idea, or just want to talk through what hosting could look like, please reach out to me! I'm here to help every step of the way.
Let's make this a semester where we GATHER, CONNECT, and GROW together!
I'm praying for you and believing God is going to do some incredible things through our groups this fall!
