Launching New Small Groups

September 15, 2024 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

If you would like to join a small group, please sign up by September 15.

As Fall is approaching, it is time for our next season of small groups. This Fall we have five small group offerings. And what are small groups you might ask? These are gatherings for smaller groups who have a common affinity or wish to make a deeper connection to the church and with other members. This might be a great fit for you if you are new to Church of the Resurrection; and/or looking for deeper community; and/or if you’re someone looking for a place to work out some discernment with others.

The Spirited Book Club
Fellow Book Lovers, we are forming a new book club at Church of the Resurrection. We will meet once a month on Tuesdays at 7pm with a goal to nurture a group of fellow readers who are eager/hungry to discuss books with spiritual content. (We define as any book that raises spiritual questions and opens our spiritual understanding and connections as being “spiritual.”) We will be reading Barbara Brown Taylor’s “Holy Envy” as our first book selection. If you are interested please email Rev. Whitney and if you have questions, contact Nancy Black or Jessica Beerbaum.
Love God – Love God’s World: Creation Care
The National Church has prepared a program on creation care called “Love God, Love God’s World” modeled after the Sacred grounds curriculum. It is a nine session video curriculum to take us on a deeper dive in love of God’s creation and the world. We are looking for 6-12 people to participate in this curriculum and Phil Matthews has agreed to serve as a facilitator. The plan is to meet every three weeks or so and the program will run from October to May 2025. Please contact Rev. Whitney if you are interested and contact Phil Matthews if you have questions.
Emmaus Group: Finding Jesus along the way
A small group that will include about 6-8 people that meet regularly to discuss faith journeys, scripture, sermons, and spiritual practices. The group will make a commitment to meet for four months and then decide if they wish to continue meeting together. Please email Rev. Whitney if you have questions or are interested in this group.
The Resurrection Men’s Group
After a hiatus, the Men’s group is looking to be resurrected (pun intended!) to offer a place for men to meet and share about aspects of their spiritual and secular lives. The group will meet once a month with time and place to be decided by the group. If you are interested, please email Rev. Whitney and if you have questions, please ask Neil Crawford. The shape and direction of the group will be discussed and agreed upon at the first meeting in October.
YARG: The Young Adults at (Church of the) Resurrection Group

If you are between 22 – 35 years old and looking for a community of other Christians to talk with and share a meal – this might be the group you are looking for. We will have our first gathering in October where we can talk about what people might like this group to become as well as logistics of time and place. If you are interested or even a bit curious – please email Rev. Whitney. And if you have some ideas or questions about this group, please let Michael Wheeler know.
