Holy Trinity Church, Claygate

What are Small Groups?

Small groups are one of the best ways of getting involved in church life ... a great way of getting to know others better, growing in faith and knowledge of the bible. They are a critical support for our walk with God.

Our small groups meet in and around Claygate on a weekly or fortnightly basis. The meetings are hosted in people’s homes and a typical group will have 8-10 regular attendees. Our groups follow programmes of study and discussion which are biblical (books or themes) and application-oriented (issues of Christian living). Groups are also centres for fellowship, encouragement and support for each other in our Christian journeys.

We have over 30 groups who meet regularly! Most have a variety of age groups, a gender mix and include people at various stages of their walk with Christ. Some are long-standing, others recently formed either as a result of 40 Days of Purpose or Alpha courses. Evening groups are the norm (usually Wednesday evenings), but there are some day-time groups as well.

Our vision is to develop as a church of small groups, with high participation levels, deepening discipleship and close community. We have already been greatly blessed by God in the development of our small groups programme. They are at the core of church vision and they are really important to us all.
