Get Your Game On! Everyday should be game day! Join a LIFEgroup and they can be! Be something. Give something. Connect your life to the lives of others. If you’re really gutsy, join those who are needy, poor, marginalized, and forgotten. Through groups of committed ministry partners, connect in conversation with those who are ‘lost’, leaving the church, rethinking the faith as nomads, exiles, and prodigals. Life is short, but we can do something that matters—something that lasts. Connect now. Spring semester LIFEgroups are starting! Contact Dennis at dbachman@newsongsd.org for more information.

LIFEgroups
What is a LIFEgroup? A LIFEgroup is a small group of people who meet regularly to encourage one another in their journey towards Christ. The group strengthens each member through prayer, encouragement, and a vision for those who do not yet know Christ. Groups are purposed for edification (building one another up) and mission (bringing Christ to your community).
Why should I join a LIFEgroup? We consider LIFEgroups to be one of the most important ways to experience connection and community at NewSong. Through a LIFEgroup, you are able to learn about the faces you meet on Sunday and share in your spiritual journey with others—encouraging one another as you live, learn, grow and reach out to others. God doesn't want any of us to be left to walk alone.
When, where and how long do these groups meet? LIFEgroups meet on various days and nights of the week in homes throughout the community. Some groups meet every week and others meet twice a month. Individuals and groups have the freedom to determine how long they stay in a LIFEgroup and how long the group lasts.
What about childcare? We leave it up to each group to work out their own childcare. Some groups look to include children in part or all of the meeting, while other groups prefer to not have children at their meetings. Some groups rotate the care of the children between group members and others hire someone to care for the children.
What will we study? Most groups base their discussions on the previous weekend's sermon. The group meeting provides an opportunity to discuss how the sermon works out in real life. Other groups choose to study different curriculum based on group interest.
I'm interested. How do I proceed? Joining our NewSong Inside-Out group on Sunday nights (6:30 - 8:00 pm) at the church sanctuary is a great way to explore becoming part of a LIFEgroup. Or you may decide to start a LIFEgroup yourself. If you'd like to explore bringing some people together to form a new group, please click the "Interested in Starting a LIFEgroup?" link and contact Newsong. A third option is to pick up the current list of open LIFEgroups and try out various groups until you find the right fit.
