Our Small Group
Every Wednesday morning at Hands, we gather together in small groups to dig into God’s word and share what He is doing in each of our lives. For the last 3 years, we have lead and facilitated a small group in our home. It is a special time that we treasure and look forward to every week. Year after year, our groups change and we have loved each group that we have been a part of. But this year’s small group has been particularly special to us.
We wanted to introduce you to our small group:
Caiver – a South African who is part of our maintenance team. We have been in groups with Caiver before, but this year we really saw him come out of his shell working through health challenges and sharing very personally from his own experiences.
Baba John – the strongest 70+ year old we know. He is part of our maintenance team as well as a pastor in his community.
Oumie – the grandmother of the Hands at Work community, we love the wisdom and deep faith she brings.
The Mohajer family – a Iranian/Canadian/British family whose willingness to be open and vulnerable has been so valuable to our small group this year.
Caleb – a young British guy who earnestly sought after God’s heart.
As a small group, we have been sharing and praying for Gogo Laura and her family in Mafambisa community, South Africa. Each member of our group has been involved in different ways throughout this year, from visiting her in her home to building her and her family a new structure and spending time with her grandchildren. Before we all went our separate ways for the Christmas holidays, we spent a morning as a group with Gogo Laura and her grandchildren. It was great to be there altogether and share with her how had been lifting up her family this past year.
This Wednesday is our last small group of this year. We will be sad to see our group disperse but we know that because it’s hard, it’s the right thing to do and we are looking forward to what God has in store for our new small group in 2019.
