Small Groups
For us to grow as disciples of Jesus it is important that we journey together in our life of faith. To this end we run a number of small discipleship groups, which are an integral part of church life. We encourage everyone to join one of the groups to explore God’s word, pray for and to strengthen one another in our daily living.
Please explore the groups below for a taste of what each of them get up to and to find the one that is right for you. If you would like to join or find out more about our midweek groups, please contact welcome@winbap.org.uk
