Welcome to the Life Group/Pastoral Ministry of CityLife Church.
Life Groups are small groups of people who meet together regularly in
an informal environment - usually in homes or work places, but
potentially anywhere! We have Life Groups for Young People, Campus
Students, Young Adults, Young Marrieds, Singles, Parents, Adults,
Families, Business People and a variety of age groups. Life Groups
generally meet 3 times each month.
People can easily attend church, be part of a large crowd but never really get involved, make friends, develop their
spiritual gifts and be accountable in a practical way. Our Life Groups fulfil these important elements of church life. As we get
bigger, we have to get smaller at the same time - we do this through
Life Groups. Celebration Meetings are a time to join together as one body
and Life Groups provide fellowship, support, and relationships with
others who love the Lord as we do. Life Group Leaders are also
available to pray, visit, counsel and support their members in any way needed.
We would therefore encourage everybody not only to be part of our
Celebration Meetings, but also to be vitally connected to a Life Group.
The Purpose of Life Groups
- A Life Group is a Care Group
It is a place where Christians can gather together to care for one
another through friendship, encouragement and practical expressions of love
and kindness.
- A Life Group is a Disciple Making Group
It is a place where Christians can grow together to become fervent
followers of Jesus Christ through the process of discipling, teaching and
mentoring.
- A Life Group is a Ministry Group
It is a place where Christians can develop and use their God-given
gifts and abilities to help others.
- A Life Group is an Outreach Group
It is a place where Christians can bring their friends, neighbours and
relatives in order for them to experience the life that is in Jesus Christ.
