START AN ONLINE LIFE GROUP
Enjoy an online meeting you actually look forward to and you don't have to clean your house!
|
Online groups are a safe way to connect with friends or make new ones from the comfort of your own home. Life Groups consist of three or more people who meet regularly to explore the Bible, spend time praying for one another and enjoy each other's company. |
|
Online groups typically meet for 60 minutes, catch up, laugh, discuss a video teaching or book of the Bible, plan for fun together outside the meeting, and pray for one another. You can start an online group in just Four Easy Steps.

EVENING PRAYER WITH GLOBAL CONVERSATIONS
Wednesdays in Lent, starting Feb. 24
|
On Wednesdays in Lent at 7 pm you are invited to gather with us on a Zoom call. We follow together in the liturgy of Evening Prayer and then be joined by Christian leaders living in other countries for conversations on the mission of the Church. |
|
We will be seeking to learn from the experiences of Christ Followers in other countries what we can do to be more effective in our mission to connect people into a growing relationship with Jesus. We believe there is much to learn from leaders in other countries who also have a good understanding of the challenges Christian churches in the United States are facing.
Here is the line-up for our global conversations: CRU missionary Tini Horning (3/3), Jonas Kröning (3/10) of our partner church in Germany, Pastor John Babu (3/17) from India along with St Luke member Jacob Benjamin, and Pastor Tyus Nedd (3/24) from International Christian Center in Columbus. We hope you will make Wednesdays at 7 pm part of your discipline this Lenten season.
|
|
We encourage everyone to begin joining the gatherings at 6:45 pm so that we have time to admit everyone. Please be patient as we admit people, it could take some time to respond to your request to join.

If you think about our online ministry like our physical building, Hosts are like your welcome, next steps, and prayer teams—all in one. They play the important role of greeting attendees in the chat, answering questions, sharing helpful links and resources, and praying for people through one-on-one prayer. |
