About Small Groups at Sylvania
Why small groups?
Sylvania small groups are aimed at “Pursuing community to pursue Christlikeness.”
What happens at small group?
At Sylvania, small groups are intended to help facilitate deep, godly relationships.
Small groups give us an opportunity to eat together, discuss the Word together, celebrate together, struggle together, and pray together.
Some groups study books on Christian living, some discuss the most recent Sylvania sermon, and others study books of the Bible.
How small is a small group?
The typical Sylvania small group includes 8-12 adult participants. Groups that include families take a variety of approaches to childcare.
Who can be part of a small group?
Because growing to love and support each other well requires commitment and consistency, most small group members are faithful members of Sylvania Church.
That said, membership is not a small group requirement. If you’re not yet a member and would like to talk about joining a small group, please let us know. We’d love to talk!
When do small groups meet?
There is no set small group meeting time. Each small group sets its own meeting schedule. That said, most meet every other week in the evenings.
Where do small groups meet?
As with the small group meeting times, small group meeting locations are determined by each small group. Most meet in the homes of group members, but some meet at the church or other places.
