Small groups are where biblical community happens at Rock Brook (Acts 2:42-47). Every member is a participant and has shared ownership in a small group.

What is happening now
Rock Brook small groups meet on a semester based schedule. We have three semesters a year and each semester is tilted according to the month it starts - January Semester, May Semester, and September Semester. Each semester is three months long and includes at least one six to eight week study, small group ministry and mission projects , and a celebration dinner with communion.
Three to four weeks before each semester starts we open up small groups so that people attending our weekend services have an opportunity to find and join a small group.
What can you do until then? You can join a get fit group.
