Dear AFMC,!!I would like to invite you to join us for one of our Fall 2014 Growth Groups. I’m really excited about our groups this Fall and I believe you’ll have a great experience.!!Growth Groups are AFMC’s groups of 8-15 people that meet together each week, from October-December, to learn about the Bible, grow spiritually, and to develop healthy Christ-centered relationships. !!There are FOUR GREAT REASONS to join a Growth Group this Fall:!!• Weekly study of a book or topic that will help you take your faith to the next level.!• Groups are a great way to refocus on faith during the week.!• Get connected with some new people.!• Have fun with other people experiencing some of the same life situations as you.!!Our Fall Growth Groups begin the week of October 5th and last through the beginning of December. So it’s just enough time to learn something new and build some relationships without feeling like your are signing your life away!!!I hope you’ll take a few moments to look at the groups we have to offer this Fall and that you decide to get plugged in! It is an investment worth making! !!Pastor Rick!
