Small Groups Re-Launching Fall 2022
A message from Hannah Powell, a new staff member here at St. Patrick’s.
We are re-launching small groups! Starting September, we will be re-launching our small group faith studies. Small groups are the heart of our parish and the source of joy in the lives of so many human beings. The purpose of our small groups is to invite you into an intentional space that connects you with others in similar circumstances, both spiritually and ordinarily.
If you have led, been a part of or want to be lead/be apart of a small group, please come into Holy Grounds anytime to see Hannah. Or, you can click the button below that will take you to a small group sign up.
Depending on your response to the poll below, Hannah will likely reach out to you.
What is Alpha?
Alpha at St.Patrick’s is the place to explore the Christian faith with others. Each session has time for connection, a talk, and space to discuss and ask questions plus delicious food to share! It is designed for people without a church background or who wouldn’t call themselves a Christian. It’s an opportunity to invite your friends to hear the Gospel and explore a relationship with Jesus. You can even attend with them!
Alpha begins September 22nd!
Morning Alpha @ 9:00 am – 10:30 am
Evening Alpha @ 6:30 pm – 8:00 pm
Come and see and encounter the love of God.
Are you an Alpha alumni?
