House
Groups
House groups
are held in various areas of the different cities in which
our churches are found. They are held mid-week when there
are no other general meetings. Their aim is to help the
local church function as a family and through the various
activities those who attend relate to one another in a more
profound way.
As a product of this relationship pastoral care can be carried
out more effectively and therefore healthy growth and reproduction
occurs naturally. In this way new leaders continue to arise
as a result of being discipled in the groups.
Generally
speaking, the memebers meet in the
home of the house group leader to facilitate the teaching
of others to live as a Christian. The activities of each
of the house groups are not restricted to a single day,
but relationships allow members to visit one another or
to arrange additional activities such as days in the countryside,
meals, camping trips etc.
Practical
themes based on the Bible are shared in the house groups
which can be applied to the daily lives of those who attend.
At the moment we have a well-defined program that allows
us to bring unity to the vision of Centro de Vida Cristiana.
As
well as these things, the groups share food, encouraging
moments in which to get to know each other, opportunities
to serve and pray for the needs of those who attend.
All
of these things are carried out in the sprit we read of
in Acts 2:42.
