Small Groups Ministry

The Small Groups Ministries at the Cathedral of the Rockies provides opportunities for spiritual growth, friendship and community with one another.We believe our small group ministry plays a vital role in growing our relationship with God.Our spiritual journey is supported, encouraged, challenged and celebrated through participation in the Small Group Ministry.

Each Small Group reflects the individuality of its members, interests and stage in life. Most groups include fellowship, Bible study and prayer.Topics, meeting schedules and meeting locations vary within the various Small Groups.Many times small groups recognize the various gifts and interests of their members and utilize their collective passion and energy to provide service to the greater community.Small groups give opportunities to express the “overflow” of what God is doing in our lives.

The purpose of Small Groups at FUMC:
- Spiritual development – Bible study, prayer and growing in Christian faith:
- Community with one another – We’re not meant to go it alone in our Christian walk:
- Serve the larger community – Opportunities to express the “overflow” of what God is doing in our lives:
