Small Groups

What is a small group?

A small group is a face to face gathering of people who meet regularly to accomplish a variety of Christian purposes.

What is the purpose of small groups?

The purpose of our small groups is to bring life and growth to Central Lutheran's members so they are ready to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

How can I join a small group?

New members are welcome in almost all current groups. Call the church office at 723-9336 or send an e-mail to Jill Maurer, Small Groups Coordinator, at jmaurer11@sbcglobal.net to learn more.

Can I start a small group?

Small group ministry works best when it comes from the members. If you have an interest and would like to share it with others in the context of the church, let us support you and connect you with others that share the same interest.
