Small Groups

McEachern UMC has been blessed with growth, and as we get bigger, let us also become smaller.

Jesus said, “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another.”

John 13:34-35

While we have an obligation to help unbelievers, we also have the privilege to know and love other believers. What better way to start loving one another than to get to know one another through small groups?

The McEachern Small Groups will consist of 4-5 families who will get together at least once a month for a year. The “families” may be one person or many, old or young, visitors or members. The meeting times and agendas will be set up by each group.

So, don't get lost in the crowd.

What do small groups do?

Small groups will meet to get to know each other and spend time together. The only constant for each group will be prayer. Each group may establish activities as it desires and set its own meeting times. Some groups will want to meet at the same time every month. Others will want to vary their times and activities.

Meeting Suggestions:

  • Dinner at each others' houses
  • Saturday breakfast
  • Lunch at a favorite restaurant
  • Pot Lucks
  • Sunday afternoon tea
  • Friday night prayer and “just desserts”
  • Rotating projects at each others' houses
  • Bowling
  • Coffee at Starbucks
  • Mission projects at home or abroad
  • Progressive Dinner
  • Game Night
  • Picnic
  • Cook out
  • Museum Visits (Fernbank, Zoo, Sci-Trek)
  • Climb a mountain (Kennesaw, Stone Mtn.)
