About Small Groups
All Saints is a church with small groups.
Small groups are the building blocks of the community life of the church. They are the place where individuals are cared for pastorally, can find healing and fellowship and can learn to minister, work and have fun together. Each small group is autonomous and sets its own programme. As the church has grown, small groups have become vital, not only for our ongoing personal health and growth as followers of Jesus, but also the health and growth of the church. These values are important as we seek to bring the heart of Jesus into the heart of the city.
A growing church can be a very lonely place, so we would encourage everyone to be a part of or attached to a small group.
Our groups meet mainly on a mid week evening in different locations throughout the city and are the place where we can experience church life and community together. The groups have covered a variety of biblical topics, book reviews, prayed, supported and cared for each other. Small groups also have several social activities, ranging from meals and skittle evenings, which are well supported.
