COMMUNITIES
We encourage anyone part of our local church family to find transformation, discipleship, and growth in a small community Group.
Church is more than an hour and a half gathering on Sunday; Church is sharing life around a table; “practising the way of Jesus” together. Throughout the week, we want to live in community as groups of less than 10 people, where we eat, pray, and share life together. Small groups are often where the ugly, beautiful, difficult, and rewarding moments of real life take place and is often the place where we grow in our love for one another as family.

We want to keep things as simple as possible. During our first term we want to focus on simply gathering together around a simple meal (or cake!), praying for one another and sharing our stories. We appreciate that we all having different schedules and commitments outside of Sundays, so our hope is that there will be a variety of St. Ed's Communities to choose from that meet on different days and times.

JOIN A COMMUNITY GROUP
We believe that everyone was created to belong to a community. It was never God’s intention that we would do life alone. These are spaces where you can grow, learn and discover together in the context of community.
LEAD A COMMUNITY GROUP
We’re looking for people who enjoy hosting others, creating a place of connection and providing pastoral support. If you are interested in leading others in discipleship and growth, we’d love to hear from you!
