L.I.F.E. Groups  at First Pentecostal Church are dynamic places to grow and learn as members reach out to one another as they reach up to God.  Our vision is three fold: 

1.  GROW in relationship with God

2.  GROW in relationship to one another

3.  GROW in number and multiply into another small group

Mission

Why L.I.F.E. Groups?

1.       Care is given:  Group members minister to the needs of the others in the group in an atmosphere of love and fellowship.

2.      Discipling takes place:  Mature L.I.F.E. group members demonstrate what it is to be a Christian inside the Church building as well as outside the Church.  Less mature saints learn to live a Christian life on a daily basis.

3.     Fellowship is provided:  L.I.F.E.  groups give the members a chance to experience genuine community.

4.     Spiritual gifts are exercised:  In L.I.F.E. groups, opportunities abound in which spiritual gifts can be developed and exercised.

5.     Many points of entry into the Body of Christ:  Some people will not come to a Church, even if invited.  L.I.F.E. groups offer new entry points into the Body of Christ where those individuals can be ministered to.

6.     Leaders are developed:  Each L.I.F.E.  group has a leader that facilitates the group.  This gives more opportunities to experience the fulfillment that comes from leading others to a deeper understanding of Christ.

7.     Accountability is provided:  Members of the group are accountable to one another as well as to the group as a whole.  Each member is responsible for helping the group fulfill the vision.

8.    Christianity is modeled in the home:  Christianity is brought into homes where the entire family can witness the workings of Christ.  Christian homes become a place of prayer, worship and Bible study.
