Small Group Ministry
Vision
To make Fairfield a disciple-making church
Disciple-making is the process of bringing people into right relationship with God, and developing them to full maturity in Christ through intentional growth strategies so that they might also multiply the entire process in others.
In Fairfield, disciple-making is carried out through a three-strand strategy:
- Congregational gathering
- Small groups
- Mentoring / Accountability groups
Disciple-making small groups are essential in intentional disciple-making. Jesus created a small group as the primary method of transformation and multiplication for the first twelve disciples. The early church continued that model, and so do we at Fairfield.
Building relationships is integral to building disciples. However, we cannot stop at strengthening friendships. If we want to truly make disciples, we need to build small groups in which people can be challenged, growth can be measured, and the impact can be multiplied.
In FFMC, we want to encourage every disciple to join a small group where they are transformed into Christ’s image and by which His message of redemption is carried to the nations.
Small groups refer to smaller communities of believers coming together to help one another grow in Christ-likeness through:
- Studying and sharing of God’s word
- Helping one another connect truth to life
- Demonstrating love for one another as well as for the lost, poor and outcasts of society
- Cultivating accountability for growth
- Providing pastoral care for those in need
Disciple-making small groups are therefore groups that exhibit the following characteristics:
- Help one another to connect Truth to Life
- Stir one another towards love and good works
- Be accountable to one another to grow in holiness
- Work together to make disciples
Join a Small Group
We have Small Groups located all over Singapore. These generally meet during the evenings, although some meet during the day. Furthermore, there is a diverse range of Small Groups with different age (20s to 70s) and demographic (singles, married, retirees, etc.) groups meeting regularly.
We request that you provide us with as many relevant details as possible in this form so that we can help you find the small group that best fits you.
