CONNECTING IN COMMUNITY
HOUSE GROUPS
House Groups exist as Gospel-focused communities where people love and serve one another like family (Community), grow in their love for Jesus by studying and obeying his word (Gospel-centered), and practice prayer, care, share lifestyle with those who don’t yet know Christ (Missional). We have groups that run from Sunday evenings through Thursday evenings.
WHY HOUSE GROUPS?
At Bethel, we call our small groups House Groups because they’re like inviting someone into your home for a meal — an invitation to relationship. These groups offer a space for people to connect with God and one another, welcoming both church members and those outside the church to experience Christ-centered community.
No matter your life stage — single, married, young, old, with or without kids — there’s a House Group for you. Groups are designed to be intergenerational and mixed-gender, though dynamics vary.
