GrowingTogetherGROWTH GROUPS AT HOPE2020
Growing Togetherin God
At Hope we desire that not only every person have an opportunity to be introduced to Jesus for the first time, but that everyone who calls Hope their home church would be growing in their faith and deepening their relationship with Christ. One of the key ways we do this is by being plugged into a growth group.
Growth Groups is the space where we do life together. Where people who you relate with, gather together and not only talk about faith and scripture, but stand with each other as we go through the ups and downs of life. It’s a place where we can be ourselves and do life with those people in our community.
Can I encourage you to have a look through this booklet and find a group that best fits you and your stage of life. Meeting with a growth group outside of a Sunday morning context is a great way to not only meet others but also make Hope Presbyterian really feel like home. Have a look at the groups, find one that works for you and if you have any questions then please contact myself or our church office.
Let’s grow together, let’s do life together, let’s see our communities changed - together.
Marty RedheadAssistant Pastor
Why do we want you to connect at Hope?
1. We want to connect people to each other.We value relationships. We were designed by God for relationships and all major life transformation happens in the context of relationships. We want our growth groups to foster friendships that become a great source of encouragement and blessing.
2. We want to connect people to God.All our groups exist to encourage and spur one another on in our walk with God. Every group makes time for people to share the good things God has done and to pray for one another.
3. We want to connect people to the church.Our groups are a subset of who we are as Hope Presbyterian. In our groups we want to encourage one another to find ways in which to be involved with connecting with the wider church community.
