EPIC Ministry is excited to begin a Small Group Ministry for young adults! Read below for more details about this new endeavor:
WHAT IS A SMALL GROUP?
A small group is a group of 5-7 young adults who may or may not share a commonality (for example, closeness in age, similar occupations, men/women's group, same location, etc.). The small group meets twice a month at an agreed upon location (i.e. church, coffee shop or restaurant, someone's home, etc.). The group is led by a Small Group Leader who coordinates the small group gatherings and facilitates the discussions.
WHY SMALL GROUPS?
In a small group, people know each other deeply and personally due to openness and sharing. As opposed to an EPIC Faith Sharing night that sometimes has 20-30 young adults in attendance, small groups provide a much more consistently intimate environment. Relationships are formed in small groups. People hold each other accountable and fraternal correction is actually invited in a non-confrontational environment. People can minister to each other because they know each other. They are encouraged to go deeper into their relationship with God. They walk together in faith, living out the faith in practical ways. It’s really a perfect model to invite to, build up in, and walk in faith for any Christian. (ref)
WHEN DOES THIS SMALL GROUP MINISTRY BEGIN?
EPIC Ministry is holding a "kick-off" event for our Small Group Ministry on Monday, January 29, at 7:00 PM at Resurrection of the Lord (Waipio). Participants will be introduced to their small groups and its respective leaders and a special commissioning ceremony will be held.
