Fall Quarter Small Groups

(September, October, November)

At The Pointe, we believe that life is a team sport – best done together!  Small Groups are The Pointe's groups of 10-15 people that get together each week in a convenient Albany or Lee County location to meet new people, learn something new and have fun. It's a great way to make friends while growing in your faith.

Goal - 100% Participation!

Each Fall Quarter (September, October, November), The Pointe does a church-wide Small Group Study to accompany the Sunday Messages.  This Fall, our theme is "Wii Are Blessed," and the church-wide study will be a six weeks study of The Blessed Life, by Robert Morris.  The remaining six weeks of Fall Quarter will be a seperate study, chosen by each Small Group Leader.

 

CHURCH WIDE STUDY, The Blessed Life, (First 6 Weeks)

Too often, greed and materialism can choke out the true spirit of generosity found only in Christ.  This book will change every area of your life: marriage, family, health, relationships and finances. For you see, when God changes our hearts from selfishness to generosity, every part of our human journey is affected.
