Community Groups
Our community groups are smaller gatherings to help people get to know one another, as well as serve and encourage each other. Christians are called to "speak the truth in love" into one another's lives. We must know both the truth and one another if we're to do this in a way that "gives grace to those who hear." We want these groups to be places where these things happen, where we pray for one another and reach out to others.
Below you'll see our current groups. There are some size contraints, due both to location and a desire for people to develop relationships. There is also some variation as to when groups meet and what their time together looks like. But the overall goal is the same: to know others and allow others to get to know us, that we might be an encouragement to one another in Christ. For more information about any of these groups, email at office@mercypres.org.
