Why Community Groups?
At Mercy Hill, we strongly believe that discipleship happens in community. At its core, this means that we were designed to follow Jesus in the context of relationships. Community Groups are intentional gatherings of 10-15 people (on average) that meet together once a week in homes across the Triad to study the Bible together, pray for each other, and build authentic Christian community. When we are intentional to surround ourselves with others who share the same desire to pursue a relationship with God, we will experience the life-changing power of the Gospel.
• Safe & Supportive Community
• Build Lasting Relationships
• Learn How To Apply Scripture to Life
Community Group FAQs
What happens in a Community Group?
Groups spend time each week building relationships with one another, discussing how to apply the sermon to our lives, and praying for each other.
When can I join a group?
Currently, our Community Groups run on 10-week sessions separated by a break to rest and then we regroup as we ramp up to the next 10-week session. The best time to jump into a group is during the ReGroup period.
What content do Community Groups study each week?
The content for our groups is sermon-based, so groups discuss the passage from that week’s sermon and how it applies to their lives.
How are Community Groups led?
Each group has trained and experienced leaders that facilitate the discussion and communicate to the group through various mediums (ie: text, email, or other mobile application) throughout the week.
What time do Community Group meetings start, and how long do they last?
Group meeting days and times vary and generally last about an hour and a half. Childcare is not generally provided.
Community Groups are structured as 10-week sessions. Every 10 weeks, we’ll take time to Re-Group. You can either choose to commit to another session with your current Group or sign up for a different group if needed.
ReGroup: Your Opportunity to Sign Up for Community Groups at Mercy Hill
We get it. Life is crazy and schedules are always changing, that’s why Community Groups are structured as 10-week sessions. Every 10 weeks, we’ll take time to ReGroup.
