Small
group ministry
___________________________________________________
North
Raleigh Nazarene is a church that strives to connect all
adults in meaningful relationships through our small groups.
We realize the need that all Christians have to be in holy
friendships with other believers. We believe this is the best
context for spiritual nurture and growth. We encourage all
adults to consider involvement in a small group or Sunday
School class as a way to stay vital in their faith as well as
to stay connected in the church.
We also bring people together through a variety of interests,
specialty groups and “stages of life.” That list
includes groups as diverse as running groups and ethnic food
groups. Here’s a description of small groups that are
meeting currently and contact information for each. (All area
codes are 919.)
