A special ministry is starting at LCC called "Small Group Ministry." It is designed to bring people from our congregation together to have fun, to enjoy each other's company, and to grow in their faith.

Goals:

To foster a "friendly small church" feeling in a large church.

To offer another way to be fed spiritually outside of a
   weekly worship experience on Saturday or Sunday.

To provide a place where members can study topics and
   have in depth discussions about faith matters.

Small Groups are gatherings of 8-12 people who meet in homes monthly or every other month. A group may fellowship around food such as a potluck meal, appetizers, or a dessert. After this time of socializing and eating there is always a discussion of some subject related to faith and a time for prayer.

Our goal at LCC is to have 10 to 20 groups formed in 2010. There are two groups presently in existence. One was started for "40 Days of Purpose" and is still going strong. The other was started over twenty years ago and continues to be an ongoing vibrant group. If you are interested in becoming a member of a small group or simply have more questions contact one of the Small Group Task Force members: Colleen Both (963-4903), Erin Karlgaard (218-838-9340), Dick Peterson (963-4859) or Carol Smith (829-8142).
