Maplewood Baptist Fellowship Welcomes YOU!

LIFE GROUPS

At Maplewood, we believe that it is vital to the health of every believer to be active in a Life Group. Not only does being in a Life Group add to your spiritual growth, it also builds lasting relationships, accountability, prayer support, and alot of laughs along the way!

As a church grows larger, it is so important for it's membership to stay connected. That sense of "belonging" or "feeling connected" really takes place by being involved in Life Groups. Maplewood offers several Life Groups for individuals to become a part of.

The following information should cover all your questions with regard to Life Groups at Maplewood:

1. What are Life Groups?
Life Groups are a place to connect with others, build relationships, laugh, and of course have Bible study! Some groups meet off-campus in homes, some meet at work, and then others meet at the church.

2. What Happens in a Life Group?
The main function of the Life Group is really discipleship. The process of introducing people to Jesus Christ and then encouraging them to grow in their faith by teaching them about the Lord and showing them how to live as a follower of Christ (see Matthew 28:19-20).

3. Who are Life Groups For?
Everybody! We believe every person at Maplewood should be connected in a Life Group. We offer a great variety of Life Groups to get plugged into and can add more as the church grows in membership.

4. When do Life Groups Meet?
Life Groups meet on various days and at various times throughout the week. Check the church calendar for more specific information with regard to a group you may be interested in joining.

5. What about Childcare?
Childcare is offered free of charge at Maplewood Church for all Sunday morning Life Groups and Wednesday evening Life Groups for nursery aged children (nursery is newborn - 3 years). Some Life Groups offer childcare in the home - check with the group host in advance.

6. What do Life Groups Study?
Life Groups study varying topics depending on the Life Group type. Typically, Groups study a curriculum promoted or provided for the entire congregation. Interest groups may or may not study a curriculum depending on the group focus.

7. How Do I Join a Life Group?
We will have a sign-up sheet in the main entrance. One of our staff members will contact you soon to help you get connected in a group. Or you can call the church directly at 817-485-0915.
