Home groups are small groups which meet fortnightly in peoples' homes in and around the parish for an evening of Bible study and discussion.

I ASKED some current members, from different groups, this question. Here are some of their responses.

It is somewhere I feel safe to share my thoughts and feelings in relation to my faith.
I hesitated to join a group as I was sure I would feel embarrassed about my scanty Bible knowledge. My fears were groundless. I so appreciate these fortnightly sessions; I have made new friends and am learning a great deal.

Having attended and enjoyed Christianity Explored and Firm Foundations Courses the natural progression seemed to be to join a Home Group. I believe it is the best place to explore God's word and discover its relevance to the issues, as Christians, we are faced with today.
I do not have a great deal of confidence so it was quite a step for me. My Home Group is somewhere I am never laughed at, - though we do have lots of laughs! I am always listened to and come away feeling enlightened, encouraged and uplifted.

Belonging to a Home Group has been a vital part of keeping my faith alive. It has helped my love for and my knowledge of the Lord Jesus to grow. It is a step in the right direction towards obeying our Lord's important commandment to LOVE ONE ANOTHER and enjoy all the rewards for so doing.
