The Church at Maltby Christian Assembly

Winter 2012 Life Group Catalog

Winter Trimester Begins: January 29, 2012.

Life groups are a great way for every member of our families to get connected to the church, one another, and to God. The author of Hebrews instructs us to "encourage one another daily" and "not to give up meeting together". Life groups are one of the greatest ways to help us grow spiritually and follow Christ's example more closely.

Trimester Based Groups: The majority of the life groups here at Maltby run on a trimester schedule, meaning there are 3 sessions annually. Each of these trimesters lasts between 8 and 12 weeks with 6 week breaks in between. The trimesters are Fall (Sept.-Dec.), Winter (Feb-April) and Summer (June-August). Registration for these trimesters is always the 4 weeks leading up to the trimester start date.

Each trimester a catalog is published listing the wide variety of life groups offered for that session. We offer life groups for all ages, genders, and life phases and interests. There is a group for everyone! To see what type of groups have been offered in the past skim through one of our past catalogs.

Why join a life group?

Develop a Connection - If you feel as though you are disconnected in our congregation, small groups are a perfect way for you to plant your feet in the church and feel more at home.

Grow Spiritually - Small groups serve as a vehicle to help the body of believers engage all of who they are with all of who God is. Small groups are places to grow in spiritual disciplines of worship, prayer, Bible study, and life together.

Love & Be Loved - Small groups offer you deeper experiences of christian community by emphasizing the fullness of shared journeys, shared joys, shared struggles and shared growth.

Follow Christ’s Example -Jesus Himself was a part of a small group. The twelve apostles were His friends, protégées, and confidantes. We are created to be in relationship with one another!
