SUDS
9th-12th Grades, Winter and Spring 2007
synago
cell groups
Get connected in synago cell groups! These youth-led cell groups have
5-10 youth and gather each week for fellowship and study. The goal is to
strengthen each member's spiritual relationship with God and Jesus Christ
and to build Christian community within a circle of friends.
The purposes of each synago cell group are to:
Grow closer in our relationships with God and Jesus Christ;
Grow closer in our relationships with one another;
Learn more about the Christian faith and God's Word;
Encourage honesty and sharing in an atmosphere of trust, confidentiality,
and open-mindedness;
Support one another and care for one another in Christian love;
Grow in number by inviting others;
"Multiply" into two groups when we reach 10 regular members to
encourage intimacy and continued growth.
If you're not connected and would like to be, talk to Ryan or Marnia immediately.
