Adult Life at 316 begins with Small Groups.  Check below for information on how you can get plugged in today.  In addition to the groups mentioned below we also have seasonal groups such as a Men's Winter Bible Study or Ladies Beth Moore studies.  We will add those to the list below when they are in session and also promote them from the home page or upcoming events.  Check back often. :)

Each of our adult small groups consist of six to twelve people that meet weekly for fellowship, Bible study, and prayer. They meet on various days of the week in host homes around the area and each weekly small group usually goes from 1 1/2  to two hours.  There's bound to be a small group close to where you live.

How do I get connected into a small group?  Call the phone number for the small group you wish to attend.  The host or facilitator will answer any of your questions and prepare you for a great night of meeting new friends.   

What goes on at a group meeting? 
Though each group differs in how they do things, we usually follow a simple outline that consists of Welcome/Worship/Word/Witness.  The 'welcome' time is a time for breaking the ice and getting caught up with one another.  The 'worship' time is designated for prayer.  The 'word' is the specific study of the Bible,  and the time of 'witness' is when the group brainstorms, plans, and strategizes opportunities of outreach and service projects to others outside the group.

Is chilcare provided for small groups?  Yes, childcare is provided at each of our small groups.  Our childcare providers are a minimum of 12 years old and are approved by the small group members.  The childcare provider does not have to be a part of 316 Church but must be known by at least one of the group members before being allowed to provide care.
