Life Groups
Our life groups are smaller gatherings that run throughout the week where our relationships with God and with one another are built and strengthened. Throughout the Autumn Term, there will be a number of different life groups running at different times and places, led by various members of the church, with different themes. Take a look below at the various groups, and get in touch if you are interested in trying one out!

David & Fran's Life Group
Every Wednesday / 7.30-9:30pm
Various homes
Our life group aims to support and look after each other through the highs and lows of life. We spend time sharing, encouraging each other, laughing, praying and eating together – in every way helping to bring God into the centre of our lives and into each situation that we face.

John, Jill & Donna's Life Group
Every Wednesday /
8.00-9:30pm
Various homes
Our Life Group is a mixed bunch of people who get together with the aim of helping and encouraging one another to walk out our Christian faith in the workplace, family and community. A typical evening would include drinking tea (sometimes with cake!), worship and a frank, open discussion that is often related to what has been preached on Sunday, followed by prayer.

Steve & Alison's Life Group
Every Wednesday / 7.45-9.30pm
Various homes
We are a bunch of people from different generations sharing life together as family! We love to eat together, worship, share together, pray for one another, support and encourage one another, and generally stir ourselves to go deeper in God.

Men's Group
Every Tuesday 7.45-9.30pm
Ruwach Eastern Road
Men's group is open to all men, all ages and all stages of life and provides an opportunity for regular fellowship and a safe space for men to share and be open. At Men's Group we enjoy a meal together every week, discuss a focus topic, learn about and support each other through lifes highs and lows. There's no requirement to be a Christian to come along. We appreciate that people have busy lives with work, family and other, so there is no expectation to have to be there every week, but the door is always open.

Ruwach Ramblers
4th Saturday of Each Month
Various locations
A group open to anyone who would like to fellowship with other whilst going on a long(ish) walk in the countryside.

Daytime Life Group
Every Thursday / 2.00-4.00pm
Ruwach Eastern Road
This group is for anyone of any age who prefers or finds it easier to meet during the daytime rather than the evening. We meet to fellowship, worship, pray and discuss God's word together.

Inductive Bible Study
Alternate Thursdays / 10.30am-12pm
Ruwach Eastern Road
In the Inductive Bible Study group we study a passage of scripture together, using a technique which helps us to engage deeply with the text before we apply it to our lives. This way of studying God's word makes it accessible to everyone, whatever their background and previous experience.

Families Group
Saturdays once a month
Upcoming events:
- Light Party on 1st November at RER from 3:30-5:30pm
- Christmas Party on 13th December at RER from 3-5pm
Various locations
Our group is a place for young families to journey through the joys and challenges of parenting together! The heart for the group is community. We aim to do life together, support one another on the parenting journey, encourage each other in our faith, and make it so that the children can join in too! Our hope is while the children play together/nap/feed etc, we will get some time as parents to check in, share what God is doing in our lives, and pray for each other. We meet in homes or outdoor spaces when the weather permits it.

The Tent
Every Monday / 10am-2pm
Hanover Court Lounge
The Tent is a daytime prayer group where we meet simply to seek God and wait on His direction, without no agenda! We believe God speaks to us in words, pictures, prophetic guidance, dreams and visions. After a light lunch we begin unravelling what we sense God has given. All welcome!

Ladies Prayer
Alternate Thursdays / 7.30-9.30pm
Ruwach Eastern Road
This Group is a time when women get together and pray with and for each other, their loved ones, community and even the world. We know there is so much power when we get together and pray, and we believe in that power - his power. Jesus loved the women in his life and expected them to use the gifts he gave them including the power of prayer. Prayer is the weapon that we need to use against the enemy. 'Confess your sins and pray for each other'. The group is open to all women, church and non-church goers. We warmly welcome you to come along and pray with us, you need only bring yourself and your prayer requests.

Young Adults
Thursdays once a month
Ruwach Eastern Road
The Young Adults Life Group meets once a month on a Thursday evening from 7.30-9.30pm at RER Prayer Lounge. We are currenly going through The Alpha Course with pizza and discussion!
