What are Small Groups?

Some of you might know them as Cell Groups - they are groups of people who meet together during the week, in addition to the Sunday service, to fellowship, study, support each other and pray together, and in doing so deepen their relationship with God.

Why become a member of a Small Group?

In a growing church, it is important that we remember to deepen relationships together and build those strong foundations. Small Groups are a fundamental part of our growth together.
Each group meets together to study God’s word, discussing this together and praying together.
All the groups study the same material which gives real unity to our walk together as the Body of Christ.

When and where do they take place?

They take place throughout the week in various homes/venues. There are many Small Groups to choose from dotted in and around Ashford. Some meet during the day and others in the evenings (Mon-Thurs) and as a church we actively encourage everyone to become a member of a small group. The details of the groups are on the Small Groups board at the back of the church.

How do I join a Small Group?

If you would like to join a Small Group….maybe you are new to the fellowship and would like to meet people at WBC, or are an existing member of the church who feels God’s prompting to meet with others in a Small Group, then please do get in touch with Teresa Butcher (Small Group Coordinator), Brian Forde (Small Groups Team), our Pastor, or someone on the Leadership Team, who will be very happy to help you find a group.

Each week we open the church for a coffee morning. 'Natters' provides a time where we, and those from the surrounding area, can come and enjoy each others company, over a cup of coffee and some home made cake. Once a month a lunch is provided. There are always those around who are willing to listen and pray with those in need.

Willesborough Art Fellowship exists for mutual support and encouragement to those with an interest in art. We have a varied programme which runs throughout the year, with meetings held fortnightly, where we explore a wide range of subjects, mediums and styles. Occasionally we are able to enjoy a workshop with a local artist.
We are blessed with some outstanding countryside around Ashford and make opportunities to get out and about to paint some of the local landscape.
Every other year we hold an exhibition to show some of the artwork produced and to raise funds for local charities.

 


Apart from the social activities enjoyed within our small groups, we have a wide variety of events organised for the whole church family, by a small team. These range from picnics, barbeques, bowling evenings and barn dances. They provide us with opportunities to mix socially, and provide an enjoyable event to ask family and friends along to.
 

 Service

One of the best ways to get involved in church life is to find an area of service you may like to help with. It can be a good way to really get to know people and a of serving God, His church, and the community. more details
