Grow Groups are one way we connect with others and encourage each other in faith. They are intergenerational groups that will meet five specific Sundays in the coming educational year (beginning October 8, 2017 from 11AM-1:30PM), to study God's Word and share a meal. Grow Groups provide care and encouragement for senior saints, those who are shut-in due to health issues or hospitalization, and for people new to our neighborhood. For details and dates of Grow Group meetings, please click on the link below, or call #303.733.4936.

The theme for our six Grow Group Sundays will be “Songs We Sing Together.” During both our corporate worship times and the times of intergenerational fellowship that follow, we will have the opportunity to sing songs that have been especially meaningful to fellow members of our church family. We will also have the opportunity to share how these songs have shaped and sustained us on our faith journeys. However, to make this work, we need your help. Could you please share:

• The name of a song (or two) that has been meaningful to you on your faith journey--or somewhere along the way.
• A few short sentences explaining how this song impacted you.

Please email your songs to songs@firstcrcdenver.org or submit them to the church office by September 17. Multiple submissions are welcome and people of all ages are encouraged to participate. We look forward to hearing from you--and we look forward to singing with you!

Prayer is a vital part of our communication with God. It is our privilege and delight to care for each other through prayer. As a congregation we lift up prayers for each other and the world around us every week. We are blessed to have a group of women who meet regularly for confidential prayer, and a specific prayer group that focuses on prayer support for persecuted believers. Currently we are praying strategically for Afghanistan.

We are so excited to reconnect, share a meal and equip one another as we grow as a church family in our Christian Faith!
