SCC "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 Sebastian Christian Church will soon begin sponsoring an expanded Life Group Ministry, with sign up and registration occurring on January 11, 2015 at 10:10am in Bldg B (Fellowship Hall). Come and meet our Life Group Facilitators. Hear about the plans, locations and times of each group. Ask God how you might grow in your walk with Him through Life Groups. Many find that they have a deeper understanding of worship, feel more like a part of God s family, discover new friendships, understand the Bible better and develop a more meaningful prayer life be being involved in Life Groups. In addition, these groups create a new way to share Christ with people in the neighborhood, at work or with relatives. Many find that they discover or improve leadership skills. Some find that they cope with stress in life better because of the support of fellow believers. This could be your best hour of discipleship all week! GET CONNECTED!
