A LIFE Cell Group consists of a group of people who gather together on a regular basis as a "one another" community based on the principal of Acts 2:42-47(God's team working together, exercising their spiritual gifts to expand Christ's kingdom). This involves building up each cell member's life in Christ; using prayer, sharing, instruction in the Word, worship, and evangelism. We will pray for each other and get to know each other's needs. We will not be just talking about issues; but living them. Being part of a cell group is not a once a week meeting; but a new life-style where the meeting is a place to share together. We will share our spiritual gifts and how our "walk with Christ" went this week; rejoicing over victories, encouraging/helping each other over losses. Sharpening our knowledge of God's word by study and sharing of insight and materials, worshipping God with songs and praise. Being "salt and light" to those outside the Church and evangelizing nonbelievers. Although the cell starts by building relationships between each other; eventually more time will be devoted to study and service/evangelism. As the group grows in size, a second cell will be created and this process will repeat.
