Fortnightly Groups
Pathfinders – meets on Tuesday evenings in various homes
We are a group of mixed ages and interests, who are keen to deepen our faith and our understanding of scripture through Bible reading, commentaries and inspiring books. We believe that as a group we should be triangular, looking always upwards to God, inwards in terms of fellowship and support, and outwards to give service where possible. We meet at times other than Tuesdays as the Spirit guides us.
