Please speak to Adrian Morton or Chris Brett if you are interested in joining a group. All are welcome!
Monday evenings
The Monday group meets in Bozeat every fortnight from 7.45 to 9.30pm. We are a mixture of people, some with a strong Christian faith and others searching for one and we encourage openness and honesty in an environment of confidentiality. We start with tea or coffee and cake and usually focus on what the Bible has to say about issues which affect us today. Staying on track is a challenge as we also simply enjoy each other’s company!

New for Monday evenings
Are you hungry for the Word of God, for Christian fellowship, for a renewed sense of purpose as a committed Christian? Would you like to discover the relevance of the Bible in your own life in the 21st century and feel more confident and better equipped to share your faith with others? Then consider joining “Disciple” a bible study programme that asks group members to spend 30 – 45 minutes each day reading assigned passages from the Bible – which means by the end of the course they will have read approximately 70% of the Bible for themselves. Each group member is given their own study manual, which includes the daily reading assignments of Scripture along with commentary and questions for reflection and response. The group meetings take place weekly or fortnightly when participants start by viewing a short video giving further information on the background and historical content of the Bible passages studied. The group is then encouraged to explore the passages more deeply.

Wednesday mornings
A small group meeting weekly on a Wednesday morning 10:30 to 12:30 for women only (because of availability of leaders and subjects that may be covered). A program based on the Beatitudes, forward looking, group focussed, and potentially covering all types of habits, hurts and hang-ups.

Wednesday afternoons
This currently meets each Wednesday afternoon from 1:30pm to 3:30pm in Wollaston. The average age of those who come tends to be more towards retirement age and beyond! Various subjects have been looked at over the past year including ‘Why do bad things happen to good people?’ and a series on the Sermon on the Mount. The group would welcome new members.

Wednesday evenings
We are currently a group of about 10 people who meet at the home of Matt and Jo, fortnightly on Wednesdays. We are a friendly bunch who like to start with a cup of tea or coffee and a decent slice of cake! We then do a variety of things, such as Bible study, discuss pertinent subjects, have a time of open prayer and may even stretch to a little worship. If you like the sound of this you'd be more than welcome.

New for Thursday evenings
A new Home Group open to anyone who is looking to enrich their Christian faith. Our aim as a group will be to look at the relevance of our faith in all aspects of our everyday lives. We meet fortnightly at 8pm at 92 Glenfield Drive, Gt. Doddington, and will be an informal meeting where we will have the opportunity to look at possible material. We see ourselves as co-ordinators rather than leaders and there will be opportunities for others to lead the sessions if they so wish. If you are interested please have a word with us or Adrian Morton.
