Crosswater Community Church | Community Groups

Community Groups:

At Crosswater we believe the Bible calls all Christians to minister and be ministered to by others who are in Christ. A key way to do that is through participation in Community Groups. We have a variety of Community Groups available throughout the year. In order to meet everyone's needs we offer low-key, fellowship oriented groups, a deeper discipleship track and just about everything in between.

Calendar: Our Community Groups use a tri-mester calendar with an additional summer session. Tri-mesters are 11 weeks long with the summer session lasting 6 weeks. Below is the approximate start and end times for each of the
tri-mesters:

1st Tri-mester
last week of September thru mid-December

2nd Tri-mester
Mid-January thru March

3rd Tri-mester

Discipleship: Belief in CHRIST is designed to reproduce. Our faith is meant to be active, not passive. In this way, following the teachings of JESUS (not just learning them) is important for every believer. When a learner wants to not just know, but also grow AND show what they have been taught, they become a follower – also called a disciple . In Matthew 28:19, JESUS told His followers to “go and make disciples.”

Because of this, we feel it is important to offer intentional discipleship opportunities as part of our Community Group ministry. This is done through our Know, Grow and Show discipleship groups. These groups are aimed at helping followers Know JESUS more deeply, Grow in their relationship with JESUS and Show the difference JESUS has made to those around them.

Each tri-mester we offer various studies/groups that fit within these Know, Grow and Show categories. Our hope is to eventually offer multiple levels of groups in order to facilitate increasing levels of Christian maturity which will in turn produce new leaders.
