Acts 2:41-47

 

Life is not meant to be lived alone

God intends for us to experience life together, and that is why at VRCC, we encourage you to get into a small group.

A small group is a weekly gathering of three or more people who meet in a home, school, or workplace. They hang out, study the Word, and pray together.

Groups come in all shapes and sizes – married couples, singles, men’s, women’s, kids, no kids, workplace, under 20, over 40 - the list goes on! No matter where you are in life, it is important to have a group of people you get together with on a weekly basis to study God’s Word and have fun!

Consider these verses:

"They devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Every day they continued to meet together... they broke bread in their homes and ate together... and the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." Acts 2:42, 44, 46-47

"Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the Good News that Jesus is the Christ." -Acts 5:42 

"Greet also the church that meets at their house." -Rom. 16:5

"Aquilla and Priscilla greet you warmly in the Lord and so does the church that meets at their house." -1 Cor. 16: 19

"Give my greetings...to Nympha and the church in her house." -Col. 4: 15
