Home Fellowships
Our new Home Fellowships are based on the following values:
• Inclusivity … open to anyone who wants to come.
• Community … becoming a place to connect life-on-life.
• Spiritual Growth … showing intentionality in helping people to grow spiritually.
• Serving … each community would find ways to serve others outside of their group.
Fullerton Home Fellowship
This Home Fellowship is for people of all ages who wish to deepen their relationship with the Lord and with His people through fellowship, attention to the Word, prayer and worship. The desire is to develop a community of believers where everyone is participating and contributing in the spiritual life and relational health of the group in their own unique way. The desired outcome would be that each participant would feel a deepened sense of the Lord’s presence in his/her life, support from within the group, a closer connection with the church and a desire to continue on their walk with the Lord in new and fresh ways.
When: every other Monday evening from 7:00-8:30 p.m.
