Connect Groups

The best way to get to know people, go deeper with God and engage with church life is to join a connect group.

We run various connect groups across the church, these are small groups that meet together on a regular basis each month, alternating between socials, pastoral care, bible studies & worship.

Meeting in small groups provides a better environment for forming close relationships, sharing & receiving prayer, and discussing & studying the word. It is also a great place to invite friends to experience church in a different way.

These groups are a key part of The Gate, where individuals and the church as a whole can experience growth, both spiritually and numerically.

We also have “Bring & Share” meal usually on the 3rd week of the month 6:00-8:30pm, which includes worship and a testimony or short bible encouragement

Our aims can best be summarised by Colossians 2:2 that hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, to reach all the riches of full assurance of understanding and the knowledge of God’s mystery, which is Christ.
