Why should I attend a Small Group? Small groups exist to help us grow in maturity in our relationship with God and others. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 says, Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: if one falls down, his friend can help him up.

What is a Small Group? A samll group is typically made up of six to twelve people who meet regularly during the week to share their lives, support one another, and study Biblical truths. Each group has a host and a leader (or one person may host and lead). Groups meet at the church and in homes. Our goal is to accomodate the different needs of those in our church by offering a variety of group options.

What do Small Groups do? This can vary from group to group, but most groups have a time of fellowship, prayer, Bible or book study, discussion, and life application. Not all groups study the same thing. Some discuss the pastor's message by using the sermon notes, some read and study books about Christian living, and others study books of the Bible.

How do I find a Small Group? Look through our directory in the above attachment and find a group or two that suits your schedule and interests.  Then contact the leader to receive location information and other group details. Hopefully, you'll feel right at home with the first group you visit, but you may want to visit several groups before you find the group that's right for you. You can also call or email Clairemont Emmanuel Small Group leaders Jonathan (858-373-8906) or Julie (858-373-8905) Kelber to find group that fits you.

Can I lead a group? We are always looking for new leaders to help start new groups.  If you are interested in starting a group, please call or email Jonathan (858-373-8906) or Julie (858-373-8905) Kelber.
