Description of Ministry |

Small Faith Sharing Groups meet to
give the 6 to 10 members in each group an opportunity to
experience community, scripture reflection, prayer and
sharing about living one’s faith in a small,
friendly, supportive group. |

Frequency/Schedule of

meet weekly for six weeks in the fall and six weeks
during Lent. Others meet weekly, or periodically,
throughout the year. |

Where do I perform service? |
| |
Members of small faith-sharing
groups meet in each others’ homes each week. They
may choose to reach out to other individuals, families,
organizations who need their help. Each group decides on
their own particular service. Weekly reflections suggest
and encourage specific action. |
| 4. |
Who are served? |
| |
The group members regularly serve
each other as they support, encourage and pray for each
other on their faith journeys. As noted in #3, groups
together reach out to help a variety of individuals and
organizations. |

Preparation |
| |
Booklets are supplied to small
faith sharing group members, and many participants choose
to read over the scripture selection and commentary for
that week before they go to their gathering. |
