Small Group Ministries

Get connected: There are many ways to get connected and involved at BPC. We offer a variety of ChristCare Groups and *Koinonia Groups (K-Groups). Each group has its own personality with various elements of Bible study, prayer, sharing and fellowship, and mission service. Each group values inclusiveness and a desire to welcome new members. Below is a sampling of our current Small Groups. If you would like to know more, please call the church office.

*"Koinonia" is a Greek word meaning "an intimate partnership with Jesus Christ and with others".
