Finding A Group
Who?
Rhythms groups are made up for 3-4 people. Who you go with is important
Don’t just get into a group with your best mates as a matter of course. Stop, ask God about it and think through the practicals: stage of life, location, personalities and so forth. Being with people who are different from you and who you don’t know very well already can be a great environment to be sharpened. Unity around Jesus in spite of difference is how we become more like Christ and not just create echoes of ourselves.
If you don’t know anyone yet who you could ask we recommend to first try getting more involved in St Gregory’s community life by joining a Hub or serving on a team for example.
Ask
It’s going to take courage…
Let’s be honest: none of us like rejection! And the possibility of someone saying “no” or “I’m already in a group” can feel a bit intimidating and hold us back. But our encouragement is to ask God to give you the courage and embrace the vulnerability. It’s worth it in order to form a community who will contend for one another.
Start
It’s time to get going…
We plan on having regular afternoons/evenings, where people can come to hear more about how Rhythms Groups work. You can come on your own to find out more, or come with your group. We’ve built the website so you have all the information at your finger tips. And we are working on a paper resource…watch this space.
