At Mount Hope Church, we believe that life is a team sport- best done together! So we want to encourage you to check out one of our Small Groups. Small Groups are groups of 12 or so people that get together each week in a convenient

location to learn about the Bible and meet new people and have fun. So, be sure to keep your eyes open for opportunities to get plugged in and to meet new people!

How often will my Small Group Meet?Attending a Small Group won’t eat up your schedule. Groups meet once a week for 60-90 minutes for 6-12 weeks.

What will the people be like at my group?Look around at a Sunday service...a Small Group is basically 12 or so people who get together once a week to discuss a chosen topic or enjoy an acitivty together.

How can I be sure there is a Small Group for me?A Variety of groups allows you to choose your topic of study, activity, and people who share a life experience similar to yours.
