1.21 Community Groups

Gospel Centered Community

What happens in the cell-

Acts 2.42-47

42 And they devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. 43 And awe came upon every soul, and many wonders and signs were being done through the apostles. 44 And all who believed were together and had all things in common. 45 And they were selling their possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. 46 And day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they received their food with glad and generous hearts, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved.

What is a Community Group?

Community Groups are the primary place where you are known and cared for at 1.21. It is within these small communities that Christians can build personal relationships and practice applying the gospel to their lives. Each group expects to experience Jesus Christ in its midst, enabling participants to be transformed through mutual ministry and to experience life in the family of God.

Composed of seven to twelve people, groups meet in homes and offices throughout the city. All groups are led by trained leaders from the congregation who receive continued oversight and support from our Elders. Groups generally meet each week  for worship, bible study, fellowship and prayer. Many groups also participate in monthly service projects or social events, in place of a regular meeting.

These groups provide sanctuary from the pressures and anxieties of life in the city and facilitate the formation of new friendships. Community groups are places where we can be revitalized and strengthened as we seek to reflect the love of Jesus Christ to the people of Winston. As God made us for community, we need fellow believers to help us apply the gospel to our lives. Our hope is that everyone who attends our church will be involved in a Community.

This is the life of 1.21 church.
