GRACE Community Fellowship embraces the practice of small group ministry.  We have several small groups who gather once a month for fellowship, focused bible study, and ministering to the needs of group members, the congregation, and the community.

Small groups allow members to learn about the grace and love of Jesus Christ and the Father in an intimate environment.  Group members develop close relationships with one another, developing deep bonds of friendship.  Everything that is shared and discussed remains confidential within the group, so group members feel safe and at ease with one another.  It's wonderful to see the way the Holy Spirit works within and through our small groups.

Our regional groups meet in the local areas where our members live, and are very successful. Our congregation's members' live in a wide geographic area—spreading from Ravenna, to Wadsworth–Medina, to Canton, and all parts in between them.

Our goal is to have groups that are more accessible to a larger number of people. All of the regional area small groups are open to all members and guests. Feel free to attend the group near your home, or another group that meets at a time that suits your schedule.

Several long–running groups are taking a hiatus. If you desire a group closer to your area, let someone on the pastoral leadership team know so we can organize something if there's enough interest.

Contact the host for directions, and to find out if you should bring something for the refreshments. For the groups that will be rotating among different locations, check with the facilitator to find out who will be hosting this month's group meeting.
