Back at the start of Liberty Church being birthed, a prophetic word was spoken into out house around 'Places of Liberty'.
Alongside our "Sunday expression", we have 'Places of Liberty' in the form of small groups taking places all over our city and further! They are a great place to build friendships, grow in faith, be involved in the life of the church and also invite friends to!
Why not get connected in one of our Summer Term Small Groups!
Check out all the groups below and sign up today!
Simon & Hannah Smith
Join us as we go for walks and talk about life and all God is doing! We will be walking on pram friendly terrain with a stop off for a hot drink (bring your own flask!). Everyone is welcome!
This group is FULL for the Summer Term.
Gaz & Lois Hillier
We are looking forward to getting out and about together, heading to parks, outdoors spaces and maybe a bbq or two! This group is open to everyone of all ages. We would love you to join us as we get to know each other, encourage each other around what God is saying to us and do life together!
Leah van Staden
Ladies, come and join us as we share in one another's stories, as we learn to attune and validate one another. We will explore and adventure together in the great outdoors.
This group is FULL for the Summer Term.
Thelma Davies & Lorraine Kemp
We would love you to join us as we spend time together over a coffee, encouraging each other, sharing testimonies of what God is doing and having fun! We will be meeting on Zoom but hopefully able to get out and about too!
Gwyn Bolland and Louise Bolt
Join us on Tuesday afternoons for a walk around a park in Newport! We look forward to having conversations around life and discussing the teaching on Sundays.
Rob Davies
This group is open to all who have an interest in photography. You can bring whatever camera you have with you, even your phone! We will look at different types of photography and may have some special guests join us!
We look forward to learning together, getting out and about with our cameras and talking about the beauty He has given us in His creation.
Rob McFarlane & Graeme De Villiers
These evenings will be focused on the ‘Revelation of Jesus Christ’, that there is no new revelation in the final book of the Bible, rather that it pulls everything together from Genesis to Jude, and most practically how this points to how we should be living our lives today.
We will have a time of teaching and open question/discussion time. We would love you to join us!
Heath van Staden
This group is available to various running ability levels. We will have a main route and then alternate shorter routes.
The evening will incorporate a gathered time of encouragement through the scripture, exercise and refreshments.
You are welcome to bring children with, but they will be each parents responsibility.
David Barclay
This group is all about stepping out! On a Sunday afternoon we will be meeting in Newport town centre to pray and talk around some of the examples where people have stepped out in the Bible. We will then spend some walking the streets discussing what we have talked about and trusting the Holy Spirit to direct us as we have conversations with people we meet. It’s all about being available for God to use us and stepping out!
Phil Boalch
Why do we need armour? Is it something that we have automatically? Where do we find it? How do we use it?
During this study we will be answering these and many more questions as we dig into the truths regarding the armour of God. We will also look at the spiritual warfare that reveals the necessity of wearing the armour and how that applies to us on a daily basis.
(If you are unable to be with us in person at this time, Zoom will be available)
Adam & Lizzy Howard
If you have a heart for worship and a desire for community then why not come along to our worship Team Nights every Thursday evening. Maybe you have been playing guitar in your bedroom or singing in the shower but want to take the next step. Perhaps you are interested in sound design or want to serve on our visual team, come along and we would love to help you find your space within our team. You don’t need to be Mozart or Jimi Hendrix, but a degree of instrumental capability would be preferable, for all other elements such as words and sound, training will be provided.
We would love for you to become part of our worship family.
So how do the groups run?
Our groups run in ‘terms’ throughout the year (Sept-Nov, Jan-April, May-July) for approx. 10 consecutive weeks. Each term may have similar groups running or completely new ones to sign up to! Our small groups are a great place to build friendships, grow in faith, be involved in the life of church and also invite friends to!
How do I choose a group to join?
You can join a group based on location, demographic, focus, day etc. The choice of group you join is completely up to you! As most of our groups have limited space, we ask that when signing up for a group you give your 2 preferred options. This means we can make sure everyone has a group that they can join!
How do I sign up for a group?
The best way is through our website www.libertychurchuk.com/placesofliberty. Alternatively you can drop us an email at [email protected] or call 07943 501 007 for more information and to sign up.
Can I attend more than one group?
Yes you can, however we would encourage you to commit to one group for the 10 weeks rather than attend several occasionally. If you are interested in attending more than one, please let us know when you sign up.
What happens after I have signed up?
Between 25th April and 9th May 2021, you have the opportunity to sign up to a small group. Throughout the following week, leading up to the start of the groups, you will be contacted by your new group leader(s) to welcome you to the group. This week allows us time to administer all the sign ups and make sure people have a group to attend for the term.
We would love to hear your ideas, no matter how crazy, ordinary or out of the box they may be.
If you have an idea and/or would be interested in running a group in the future, please get in touch by emailing: [email protected]
