Shepherding Groups & Bible Classes
In a large congregation like Woodward Park, it is difficult for the elders (shepherds) and the members to get to know each other personally. By organizing the congregation into smaller groups, each with its own shepherd, it is possible to more effectively minister to each one's individual needs.
Shepherding Groups provide:
· An opportunity where you can GRASP a relationship with Jesus Christ and discover what it means to be a Christian...
· An environment where you can EXPAND and grow your relationship with Jesus Christ and other Christians through fellowship and discipleship...
· The encouragement to Proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior in every area of our lives and His love and grace through worship and ministry...
· The sufficiency to PRODUCE new Christians through careful study and application of the Scriptures!
These groups meet on Sunday mornings for Bible Class and at other times for "extracurricular" activities.
Bible Classes are offered throughout the week and provide a rich environment in which to "grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ" (2 Peter 3:18). Home Bible studies are also available for us to learn and grow and reach out to those around us. If you would like to host a Bible study in your home, please contact the Church office.
