Questions about LIFE Groups
You probably have many questions as you consider joining a LIFE Group. Below are answers to some of the commonly asked questions...if yours isn't answered here, don't hesitate to give us a call (618-632-6223) or drop us an email!
Growing Smaller as We Grow Bigger
First Baptist is a BIG church and sometimes the "bigness" of our church can be overwhelming, especially when you are new and trying to find where you fit in. That's where our LIFE Groups come in. They help our church grow smaller as we grow bigger. They are a great way for you to get connected and meet new people!
How do I join?
Just stop by the "Information Center" in the Atrium any Sunday morning and ask about finding a LIFE Group! Or you can "shop" online for a LIFE Group by clicking on the logo below:
What will the people in the LIFE Group be like?
They will probably be just like you...whatever that is. Couples, singles, men only, women only and adults of all ages meet together weekly for Bible study and fellowship. LIFE Groups will help you grow closer to others as you grow closer to God.
How can I find time for a LIFE Group?
We are all so busy! But getting involved in a LIFE Group takes an hour or so a week, but this small investment will give you lifelong and eternal benefits. Surely a great group of friends is worth more than a couple of sitcoms a week! After you join a LIFE Group, your question will become, "Why did I wait so long to join a group?!"
What will it be like the first time I attend?You will be warmly invited in to your selected group and you'll know within two or three meetings if it is the right group for you. If it is not quite right, don't worry and don't give up! There are many groups (over 50!) to choose from at First Baptist and one is sure to be a good fit.
How do I contact the church for more information about LIFE Groups?
