HOMEGROUPS

Homegroups are an important dimension of life within Hilton Church. Last night I dropped in on the group hosted by Alan and Gillian Brown. They have around 15 people linked to their group. Last night there were 9 present. We met at 8pm and after some coffee/tea and cakes, there was a very relaxed bible study centred around John chapter 1. The group then had a discussion aimed at choosing a book they could read together on Prayer. They agreed to focus on a book called Prayer - Does it make any difference? by Philip Yancey. The evening closed with a time of prayer and folk were on their way home by 10pm. I thoroughly enjoyed the evening. It was great to share in such a warm fellowship. The folk there have clearly forged good friendships during the 2 years the group has been in existence. If you are reading this and would like to be part of a group, there are 10 groups meeting at various times and places across the city. You can find out more by contacting Barry Dennis . Thank you Alan and Gillian for your kind hospitality.
