Small Group Participation
To enable us to grow to maturity in Christ, in addition to personal spiritual disciplines, we encourage all persons to be active in a small group of other believers where they are challenged and encouraged in their walk with Jesus Christ.
Being involved in a small group allows you to be accountable to others, care for others, be cared for by others, and
grow in your knowledge of God's Word.
At LRUMC, we offer a wide variety of small group opportunities for spiritual growth. Some groups focus on the basics of the Christian life, others cover specific issues relevant to Christianity, while others are in-depth Bible studies. Wherever
you are in your Christian walk, we have a small group that will fit your need. For more information on these courses or
for a schedule of Christian life and current class opportunities, please contact the church office.
