Beltway Group is a regular gathering of around 12-15 people who are pursuing healthy relationships and desiring to grow spiritually.
Almost every night of the week there is a Beltway Group meeting, with most favoring Sunday or Wednesday evenings. The majority of groups meet in a constant location (the home of a group member or at the church), though some prefer to take turns meeting in different group members' homes.
Most groups meet weekly for about 90 minutes. Often, groups follow the school calendar, opting to launch at the beginning of the fall semester and scaling back during Christmas and the summer months.
Though each group has its own personality (and quirks), all groups are encouraged to engage and discuss the truth of scripture (based either on our weekend messages or a specific curriculum), to pray together and minister to one another, and to spend time fostering meaningful relationships. Outside of specific meeting times, groups will gather socially just to have fun together. to assist particular ministries of the church, and/or to serve the surrounding community.
Groups that have families with elementary-aged kids or younger often choose to meet on a night and at a time when children's ministry (Beltway Kids) is offered at one of our Beltway campuses. Some groups opt to arrange their own babysitter(s) to watch kids while the adults meet as a group. Having kids present or in the room when a group meets is generally discouraged, as it often limits the vulnerability and transparency of the adults. A Beltway group is ideally a safe place for adults to be honest and even raw about what their navigating personally and in their relationships.
