Love Joy Small Groups

Small Groups at Love Joy play a vital role in connecting people to others in the church, form deeper relationships, and become equipped for ministry.

“Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the Good News that Jesus is the Christ” (Acts 5:42).

Small Group Scriptures

“Day after day, in the temple courts (large group) and from house to house (small group) they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the Good News that Jesus is the Christ.” (Acts 5:42)

"For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst."  (Matthew 18:20)

He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.  (Ephesians 4:16 NLT)

He has lost connection with the Head, from whom the whole body, supported and held together by its ligaments and sinews, grows as God causes it to grow. (Colossians 2:19)

Starting a New Small Group

We are always open to start new groups because there are always new people who need a place to connect in relationship with others.  If you would like to start a small group, contact Pastor Andy Zack at 651-0400, ext. 229.  He will be glad to facilitate you and training is provided.
