Small Groups

 As one small group member has said:

“Small groups provide the opportunity to delve beyond the common, the superficial, to develop close and meaningful in-depth relationships. With frequent meetings, small groups foster intimacy and a sense of deep friendships which helps us see and feel God’s kingdom.”

Wednesday Evening Bible Study
Wednesdays at 6:30pm

Our Wednesday evening Bible study is a lectionary-based study that meets every Wednesday evening at 6:30pm at First Baptist.  The lectionary readings for each week can be found at websites such as www.textweek.com.  All are welcome!

Friendship, Learning  and A Course in Miracles Group

We meet every other Sunday except during the summer from 6:00 – 8:30pm at the home of members, Nick and Anna Gough. We start with a light dinner and beverages ( everybody brings something ) and after dinner listen to the tape version of A Course in Miracles (ACIM). We listen to one section at a time and discuss the same.  Contact persons are Nick and Anna Gough, and Jule Rastikis.

Northern Fellowship Group

The group meets at 7 PM on the first Tuesday of each month (September-June) at various homes. All are welcome, it is an open group; however, hosts are generally north of the downtown Dayton area.  The purpose of the group is to develop friendships on a deeper level. There is time for fellowship and open, lively discussion on a variety of topics.
