Small group fundamentals
What are New Life small groups?
Our small groups consist generally of 10 to 15 people meeting every week for about 90 minutes. Our semester system consists of groups that meet for 10 to 15 weeks, then take a break.
Who can attend New Life small groups?
Anyone who wants to try it out and signs the small-group member covenant (available here). While some groups have homework and other assignments, many simply require you to be willng to show up and be part of the group for the semester.
How do I get involved in small groups?
You register during our four-week signup period at the beginning of a semester. You can also join an ongoing group, if the small-group leader OK’s it, during the group.
When can I register?
The registration for winter semester 2008 will go on during all January. You can fill out a card at either of our sites or simply email brad@newlifechurch.com with your choices or questions.
What if I try a group and don’t feel like it’s a good fit for me?
Don’t feel bad and simply try another group. It’s perfectly fine to try multiple groups before you find one where you feel comfortable.
Are there specialty groups?
Yes. We have a 12-step women’s group as well as groups for women only, men only and couples only. We also have a single parents group.
