Small Groups provide a unique opportunity to share faith and life with one another. Our experience with Small Groups over the last decade (and more) has shown us that real-life change best happens in the company of others where life-on-life support is naturally and spontaneously experienced. If you’re already involved in weekly worship, engaging in a Small Group is your next best step to a deeper connection with others in the church and continued growth in your relationship with God. Our Small Groups take place at various locations on and off-campus during the week. Most groups are multigenerational and the variety of group formats provides opportunities to learn and grow in different ways. We look forward to helping you find the right group, so submit your information through the form below and we’ll be in touch!
Small Groups: Session 4 2020
(Starting Sunday, October 4 and ending Saturday, November 28)
- Bible Study – Waiting for God by Juanita Ryan
We all experience times of waiting in the midst of uncertainty or suffering or great need. In the midst of such waiting it can seem like God is silent. This study is designed to help give voice to our distress and gain perspective on our fears in times of waiting and open our hearts and minds to the One who is with us always.
ORDER YOUR STUDY GUIDE from Intervarsity Press - Book Group – The Return of the Prodigal Son by Henri Nouwen.
Art has a way of opening our eyes to new messages and opportunities to see God and Biblical teaching in a different way. Rembrandt’s masterpiece Return of the Prodigal Son is one such painting and it led Henri Nouwen down a path of inspiration, re-examination and expansion of his understanding of this familiar parable. It may very well lead you there, too.
ORDER YOUR BOOK from Amazon, Christian Books, Barnes & Noble or wherever you like to purchase. Available in ebook and paperback formats. - Continuing Conversations on Racism Workshop – How to Talk to Your Racist Uncle is a workshop for those who want to continue their journey of understanding and ending racism and other forms of institutional oppression. It combines information, storytelling, personal reflection and discussion on:
* How Did We Get Here?
* What Is Racism? Telling The Stories
* Economics of Racism
* How to Become An Ally
This workshop is facilitated by an outside organization and is offered WEDNESDAY EVENINGS from 7-9 pm. The cost for each participant is $20 (payable through the FHPC church office). To ensure your spot, PLEASE ENROLL BEFORE OCTOBER 1.
