Adult Small Groups
We believe being connected to a small group ministry is one of the best ways to get involved at Christ United Methodist Church. Through the Christian fellowship and support you receive, you will be inspired to grow closer to Christ. These small groups will provide you a place to connect with other Christians with similar interests.
The following describes many of the small group opportunities at Christ Church. If you don't see one that fits your interests, let us know. We are always interested in ideas for new groups. All Group Ministries are open to church members and visitors alike.
HomeGroups
HomeGroups provide a way to continue in your spiritual growth! Groups of 10-12 members gather once weekly in homes throughout Sugar Land to participate in a study of the Bible. Studies are typically 6 weeks in duration, and most groups engage in 4 studies each year. Weekly gatherings approximate 1.5 hours in length, and are comprised of four simple components: fellowship, viewing of a video lesson, discussion of this lesson, and prayer. For more details, visit our HomeGroups webpage.
The Walk to Emmaus is a three-day experience of New Testament Christianity as a lifestyle. It is a highly-structured event designed to strengthen and renew the faith of Christian people, and through them, their families, their congregations, and the world in which they live. During the Walk to Emmaus, you'll discover how grace is real in your life, how you live a life of grace and bring grace to others. For more information, contact Annette or Bob Smith at 281-980-9277.
