Groups

Our mission as a church is to make disciples. We believe the best way to practice this at church is by regularly attending worship, attending a small group, and by regularly serving at the church. Being in a group enables you to get to know others, grow in the Word, and be on mission together.

We want to help you find a group that is the best fit for you! Please read over the tips below as a first start, then look through the group directory at the bottom of the page.

Tips for finding a group

  1. Decide the day and time that is best for you. If it Sunday morning, decide which hour of worship you will attend and look for groups at other times. If you have children or students, attend worship together and select groups during their group time.
  2. If you know someone already in a group, ask them about their group.
  3. Consider the age/life span of the group so that you will have similar life interests.
  4. If it is a weekday group, look at the location for how close it is to your home. If childcare is needed, verify its availability.
  5. Look through the group directory below  for group descriptions. You may contact the leader by email for up-to-date information on what they are studying, their schedule, childcare, location, etc.
  6. Stop by the Information Desk in the Atrium to ask questions, get directions, or request someone to take you on a campus group.

New Groups Forming

We are starting several new groups below. Being in a group enables you to get to know others, grow in the Word, and be on mission together.

View Groups

Sunday Groups

On Sunday mornings groups are available for all ages that focus on teaching, fellowship, ministry, and service. Sunday groups meet concurrently with Sunday morning worship so you may attend before or after worship.

Weekday Groups

Weekday groups are small groups of up to 16 people that focus on sermon application, focused discipleship training, your own spiritual health plan, service, and discipling others. They meet weekly at a variety of times at church, in homes, and other locations. For off-campus groups, childcare arrangements vary by group needs.

Short Term Groups

Short term groups are wonderful opportunities to grow in your faith, meet other folks at First Baptist Melbourne and learn about how to live life on Mission with King Jesus!
