Small Groups

❯ GROW

Small groups are an amazing opportunity for you to connect with others and grow in your faith. You'll have the chance to dive deeper into your faith, ask questions, share your experiences, and learn from others. So, if you're looking to connect with others and strengthen your relationship with God, we invite you to experience the power of small groups for yourself.

FAQs

  • Small Groups are for anyone that wants to get more connected to the people of Crossroads and go deeper into God's Word. These groups provide community, scripture study, and prayer and encouragement, and are a great place to learn more about God and grow in your faith, no matter where you are in your spiritual journey. 

  • All groups are centered around God's Word, and will involve some sort of bible study. Each Small Group Leader chooses the curriculum for their group with the direction of the Small Group Ministry Director, and these studies may be based on a book of the Bible, a specific topic, or sermon-based. For more information on what each group is studying, you can message the Small Group Leader directly by following the Request to Join link. We also have a large library of resources that Small Groups can look through if they need ideas on what to study with their group. 

  • Small Groups meet in a variety of places, all around Albert Lea and the surrounding area, as well as in Northern Iowa. Some meet in homes, some meet at the church building, and some meet in local places like coffee shops and restaurants. Check out the group listings below to find one that works for you!
