We believe that God’s dream for the 1st century church was amazing. He has that same dream for the 21st century church:
Community life meeting in small home groups
Congregational life in Celebration
It’s the key to life, growth and a healthy church. Rev. Dr. J.I. Packer said:
"I go around telling people that if they’re not with the whole congregation on Sunday, and in the small group during the week, their Christian lives are unbalanced."
At Elim Church Newcastle our connect groups are a healthy, growing network of small groups that are a blessing to our church and beyond. They're a great way for you to connect with the church and belong, and are a fantastic way to integrate into church life.
Simply pick up a list of our current groups from the church this Sunday and choose one you'd like to try out, it's as easy as that!
