Dies Domini – Keeping the Lord’s Day Holy Pope St. John Paul II

Being part of a small group (6-10 people) that meets regularly is key to the process of growing in discipleship. A Small Group leader facilitates and guides the group to support, challenge and inspire each other to grow in relationship with each other and our Lord.

It is recommended that small groups consist of either all males or all females. Here are two types of small groups:

• Content based: meaning that groups come together to discuss particulars of our Catholic Faith. Often these groups lead to a Spirit based group. See examples below
– Bible study
– Walking with Purpose
– Kapaun’s Men
– Christ Life
– FORMED.ORG
– Dynamic Catholic

• Spirit based: In this type of small group people share about their journey with the Lord on a more personal level and lean on one another for encouragement and prayer support. This type of group usually results from beginning as a content based small group.
