MIXED SMALL GROUPS
Mixed small groups at Harvest are comprised of a diverse group of people—young, old, married couples, empty nesters, singles, youth and everything in between. They gather each week for prayer, accountability, bearing one another’s burdens, celebrating each others joys, and most importantly to discuss and apply God’s Word to their lives.
SMALL GROUP STRUCTURE:
Opening Time: Catching up on each other’s lives - reconnecting with each other and with the Lord.
Study Time: Discussion and personal application focused on God’s Word.
Mutual Ministry: Men meet with men - women meet with women. Mutual ministry is a time of sharing, prayer, and accountability.
Interaction: Building relationships through fellowship, food, and lively conversation.
