Home Groups
At Ballardsville Baptist, we believe no one should do life alone. We all need community. It is essential that you have people in your life that care for you and keep you accountable, people that you can serve our greater community with, and people that help you grow closer to Christ. All of this happens through Home Groups.
Home Groups are small groups of people (typically 8-12) that meet weekly or biweekly at various times in someone’s home. A typical Home Group gathering would include a meal together, hanging out, and a discussion about the past Sunday’s sermon where you can go deeper into the message – all while developing close friendships with people just like you.
