Growth Groups:
At Discovery our small groups, with a few exceptions, fall into two distinct categories .  1. Spiritual Growth Groups; and 2, Activity Based Growth Groups.  These groups have a set start date, and completion date and normally run from Jan to May, Jun to Aug, and Sept to Dec. (just like school semesters).  They typically meet once a week off church grounds.  Interested in getting plugged into one of these groups?  Then please contact Melissa at melissa@discovery-church.net for more info.

The Exceptions
The following groups are typically too large to meet off church grounds.  They are normally not sermon based, but still geared towards growth and service.

  • S.A.S.S.-C.
    Sisters Acquiring Spiritual Secrets - Cell.  This group is for women only and meets the 2nd Friday of each month.  Join Pastor Pam and the other women of Discovery for a wonderful evening. Be sure you get all the S.A.S.S.-C updates. Add yourself to our evite list by emailing the office at office@discovery-church.net
  • Men's Ministry:
    Creatively named for Discovery's men.  Join Pastor Ron and the other men of Discovery as they spur each other on to be all that God has created them to be. 
  • Financial Peace University
    F.P.U. is a 13 week course designed and taught by Dave Ramsey and geared to totally change your financial life.  We are emotional about our money!  Learn to tell it where to go instead of wondering where it went.  Our next F.P.U. session will begin Sunday February 21st.  Class materials are required.  Contact Sterling at sterling@discovery-church.net with any questions.
