Small Groups:

“Where two or three come together in my name, there I am with them. ” Matthew 18:20

Our Small Group ministry at Olivet is relatively new. When we studied The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren as a congregation, we joined into small groups to watch the DVDs and discuss the insights in the book. The joy of a small group experience has spread to the point where approximately half of our adult attendees are now connected with a group.

We really encourage our members to get involved in a small group (otherwise called “cell group” or “house group”) as this is where deeper relationships are made and you will really feel the sense of your church family.  These are the groups in existence at this time, please feel free to ask more about them:

Small Group 1:  For parents of teenagers: We are taking a break until September, when we will meet every other Monday evening at 7:00pm at the home of Gary & Junette Swanell. We talk, pray and study about issues relating to parenting teens.  

Small Group 2: We are taking a break until September.  We will be meeting in the Fall Thursday evenings at 7:30pm at the home of Doug & Yvonne Kent.  

Small Group 3:  This group is led by Ken Hoar and we meet every other Thursday evening at 7:30pm.   We spend time listening to worship music to soak in God's presence, share our triumphs and troubles, and pray for one another.  We meet at Derek & Wendy Stanley's house.  We meet throughout the summer.

Small Group 4:  For Ladies:  This group is led by Carol Griffiths, in her home and meets every other Tuesday evening at 7:30pm. We are breaking for June - August; we'll meet back together in the Fall.
