Beechwood believes wholeheartedly that small groups are an essential component for experiencing life change in Christ. From studying God's Word to sharing and praying together, God uses community to transform us into truth and grace-filled people. In small groups we experience deeper understanding, increased knowledge and authentic fellowship. While each of these elements is important, it is the dynamic combination of these and other elements that gives small groups a special place in the Christian life. LIFE Groups – age-group, interest-group or specific study groups meet at various times throughout the week in a variety of homes or classrooms. Here's a sampling of groups currently meeting together. Alpha is an outreach program that also serves as an excellent foundation in a non-threatening environment to begin the discipleship process. Children's Ministry – Children are experiencing growth in Faith Builders, Gems and Cadets, choirs, Vacation Bible School, Sports Camps and Kids Hope. Student Ministries – Middle school youth group meets on Wednesday evenings and High school students meet on Sunday evenings. One-on-one mentoring, retreats, service projects, mission trips and outreach events are also planned for 6th – 12th grade students. This link will take you to their website. Young Adult Ministry – a vibrant place where biblical truths are examined in light of what’s happening in the world around us. Small study groups as well as larger social events help us focus on reaching out and digging deep. Young at Heart (Senior Ministry) – made up of folks at or near retirement age. They meet together weekly to pray, study, eat and enjoy fellowship. Service projects and various social events are planned also. Small Group Leader Training Events are held throughout the year at various times to support and encourage those interested in taking leadership roles with their small group. Core Classes such as "Contagious Christian" and "Network" provide opportunities for people to grow while walking their faith-journey. Women's Ministries - Annual off-campus retreats bring multi-generational groups of women together to grow and experience life change in Christ. Men's Ministries - a planning team is working to plan breakfasts, outings (like golf and fishing) and perhaps even a retreat! |
