Small Groups

Jesus calls us to go out and make disciples.

Smaller groups foster close relationships and integral community. The small group atmosphere is ready-made for building friendships. People talk more in smaller groups of people and are quicker to recognize needs and help meet those needs. The relationships formed within small groups form a strong fabric within a church and will endure and strengthen over time.

A new initiative has started at Bethlehem. Strengthened by our love for all God’s creation and recognizing the urgency to act, a social justice initiative committee has been established to work for our goal to advance positive change in our church, our community, and our world. We invite all who are interested to participate with this committee—through education as well as action in the myriad issues facing us as Christians in our world today.

Dining for Eight

This group’s purpose is to get better acquainted with other church members in a social setting, while enjoying food and drink! Each group of eight members will meet once a month for three months.

What is dining for eight you ask? Dining for eight is a BLC tradition where eight people gather for food and conversation. You can do brunch or dinner – at home or at a restaurant – your group can decide. You will be paired up by the random selection of the fabulous evangelism team. This is a great way to connect with fellow members. If this sounds fun please email Bob Lee at bobandsabrinalee@gmail.com
