MINISTRY GROUPS

Graced Family Chapel provides different openings and platforms for individuals to relate with others, locate their ministry, and utilize their gifts and talents to serve and contribute. Ministry Groups start on purpose and specialize. Within each Group are still smaller groups. For instance:

  1. Outreach Ministry (OM). This is an arm of the Church that reaches out beyond the spheres of our local church to minister to those outside (Luke 4:18; Acts 1:8). Evangelism is the focus. Examples of Small Groups within the Outreach Ministry include:

  1. Hospital Ministry – This group focuses on healing and restoration by demonstrating the compassion of Jesus to the sick. Their target is hospitals and clinics where sick people are temporarily resident.
