ABOUT SMALL GROUPSGetting connected at New Hope Foursquare Church means participating in a Small Group. They provide a setting to build dynamic relationships and apply Biblical principles to daily life. Small Groups allow New Hope to grow even closer as a family while we grow larger as a body.
Were there Small Groups in the Bible?The book of Acts records the tremendous growth of the first church in Jerusalem. Small Group meetings in homes were the foundation of the early church. Acts 5:42 tells us that the people met “in the temple courts” (large group worship) and from “house to house” (small group fellowship). Small Groups were vital to the church’s growth then, and they are just as vital now. You’ll never fully experience all that New Hope has to offer until you connect in a Small Group!
What are the groups about?Our Small Groups are as varied as we are; group leaders use their gifts and passions to create a group that allows others to join with them in serving God. Whatever your age or interest – Bible study, dining, prayer, missions, fitness, you name it – we’ve got a group that’s just right for you, and they meet all throughout Salem, Keizer, and the surrounding areas.
When can I join one?New groups start three times a year. We offer Fall, Winter, and Summer semesters. However, you don’t have to wait for the new semester to start before joining a group. Most Small Groups are open

throughout the semester. Find a group, contact a leader, and get going!
