PEPC Home Groups
Here at PEPC we place a high value on our relationships with each other and especially with God.
But often there simply isn't enough quality time on a Sunday morning to build these contacts into truly meaningful relationships. Relationships that can help you, not only to keep going when life throws some curved balls your way, but can also encourage you and help you to grow in your relationship with God.
We need to be in Gods word every day not just on Sunday mornings. We need to take what teachings we hear on Sunday and put them in to practice during the week, and sometimes we need help to do this. No one said being a Christian was an easy walk in the park. We are traveling the narrow pathway after all aren't we? God's expectation of us as a Christian is higher than the world's expectations of us as its citizens. God loves us and wants the best for us.
That is why we have a number of small Home groups that meet during the week in people's homes where you can come & fellowship together and build on these special relationships. Home Groups are places where in a small relaxed homely environment you can share and pray together, laugh and cry together and study God's Word together helping each other understand how God wants us to live in our world today. We all need support at some time in our lives and what better place to receive it than from people you have grown to know & trust and who love God as you do.
As our Church family grows bigger it gets increasingly harder not to feel lost in the crowd; that is why belonging to a Home Group can help you overcome this feeling and will enable you to get to know a few people really well instead of only knowing at lot of people only by sight. This will also assist you in feeling like you belong.
Our hope is to see all members of our Church Family involved in a Home Group. There is always room for more Home Groups so if anyone feels that the Lord is asking them to start up another Home Group and they are not sure what this would entail please do not hesitate to contact either myself or Geoff for a free no obligation discussion. We would also love to pray with you and encourage you in this vital ministry.
God Bless You All
