*  "I love the people in my small group.  They are my lifeline!"

* "My group supported me through some tough times with my teenagers! Thank God, I was able to meet once a week with them to encourage me and help me find answers!"

* "Prayer Group has opened my eyes and heart to new ways to express my love, worship, and requests before God."

*" I had some deep hurts that needed healing. My group helped me to allow Jesus to come along beside me to face and work through some of those crippling and harmful "garbage" I had held onto for so long."

* "I finally found a safe place where I can study God's Word with other believers."

If you have not tried a small group ever, or had a bad experience in a small group, don't let that stop you from enjoying the RICH fellowship and strength you can gain from belonging to a small group.

Take a look at either the topic, or the leader of the group and ask questions! Look for more information as to exact groups in the bulletin this month. 

Take this opportunity to extend your spiritual life in ways you have previously left alone. God will bless you greatly and the friendships you will form will enrich your life and others through you.
