- Small Group options
Option 1: Jim & Peggy Antunes
Content: “Potluck and Prayer group” – The Antunes will provide the first meal and ask that everyone chips in to provide something subsequent weeks.
Our group will focus on open discussion, mutual support and prayer concerns and the weekly gospel reading will be the topic brought up.
Group focus will be determined. As a group we can focus on who we will support as our acts of service to public or church.
Meeting usually at our house however we are going to ask if others could have at their house just in case we cannot make it or possibly rotate. Our house will maintain social distance.

Option 2: Doug & Nita Campbell
Content: We would like to start with discussing the sermon series that the church is doing and the question(s) at the end of the service.
From that, we will find out what the group wants as far as a Bible / book study. The goal of the group is discussion and everyone will have the chance to facilitate.
We desire a shared governess because ownership is important and this is our group. No meal provided, but drinks and dessert for the first class. If the group wants to continue with food & beverage, it will be determined collectively.

What: The formation of our group is to serve 2 purposes:
Social: We expect to have fun, to enjoy each other, and gather in Christian love. Please, we are hopeful to develop lasting friendships with those deciding to join us.
Mission: While having a good time is a genuine priority, we also don’t want to neglect God’s call to share our faith and love. Accordingly, our purpose is to find a need within our county and thrive to make it better. Our group will decide where and how this should be done.
When: Our group will gather at 11:00 until 1:00 on every other Thursday. Once establishing our group of at least 8, we will communicate the date of our first gathering.
Where: One of our group will rotationally host and provide a light lunch the first Thursday of each month. The second Thursday we may decide to meet at a restaurant.
Why: “God is not unjust, he will not forget your work and the love you have shown as you have helped his people and continue to help them.” Hebrews 6:10

They cover a wide range of subjects from Books of the Bible to contemporary social issues. Group size is ordinarily limited to about 10 people. Recent studies have been on forgiveness, what Jesus said about hell, grace and the 7 deadly sins. They offer the opportunity for fellowship, sharing and study.
