Studying John Indermark's "Parables and Passion"
You are invited to join IPC's small group ministry for adults, Grace Groups.
Please contact Cindy Shaw (933-3696) if you have an interest in serving as a Grace Group leader or if you have any questions about our Grace Groups.
Twice a year, during Lent and in the Fall, the Grace Groups meet in members' homes for a six-week Bible study.
2012 Lenten Grace Groups: Registration Going on Now!
Grace Groups offer IPC members a great way to get to know other members and study the scriptures … and participants particularly enjoy the small group atmosphere, with informal meetings in members’ homes, studying scriptures and enjoying the fellowship of church friends. In addition to our current groups, we would like to create new groups based in Homewood and Vestavia, as well as a men’s early morning group and a young couples group. Note: If you would like to help with this exciting endeavor or if you want to be a leader or participant for any of our Grace Groups, please contact Cindy Shaw
Lenten 2012 Grace Groups Information: Registration: Sundays Now Through February 5 Spring Session: Feb. 12 – March 31 Lenten Study Guide: John Indermark’s “Parables and Passion” –Jesus’ Stories for the Days of Lent We’ll help you find a group that meets at a location and time convenient for you. What could be better than making new friends and growing in your faith together? Sign-ups are going on now!
Everyone’s Invited!
The groups will be comprised of 10 to 12 participants that meet weekly for 6 weeks, at times other than Sunday morning or Wednesday evening, for an hour and a half. The groups will meet in a host home or at the church under the direction of a trained group leader.
Grace Groups are for those people willing to make a commitment to their group. The commitment includes regular attendance, preparation, and participation. These groups are not meant to compete with any of the current educational programs of the church. They are intended to provide the opportunity for participants to share, listen, and pray with each other in a setting that is more relaxed and at a time that is less hectic than the Sunday morning rush.
Please consider this your personal invitation to join one of the Grace Groups.  |
