Small Groups

SPIRITUAL LIFE GROUPS

Spiritual Life Groups are student-led small groups that meet on campus for at least one semester. The goals of Spiritual Life Groups are two-fold: 1) students will grow deeper in their relationship with Jesus Christ, and 2) students will develop meaningful friendships that support their Christian formation. Spiritual Life Groups consist of anywhere from three to twelve members who come together weekly for Bible study, prayer, discussion and support. Occasionally, faculty and staff lead Spiritual Life Groups as well.

BARNABAS

Barnabas is an anonymous ministry that encourages students to take seriously the work of loving their neighbors. Students involved in Barnabas creatively brainstorm and execute various projects on campus—ranging from decorating a professor’s office to leaving care packages and notes in students’ mailboxes, to sending thank you cards to physical plant and dining services employees in recognition of their behind-the-scenes work. Students in the ministry meet together weekly to fellowship and plan the week’s projects.

CATHOLIC STUDENT FELLOWSHIP

Catholic Student Fellowship (CSF) is a student-run ministry dedicated to helping Catholic students on Gordon's campus grow in their faith. CSF welcomes all Catholic students and those with an interest in Catholicism to their many events, including a weekly worship meeting, opportunities to attend mass, and off-campus excursions.

CHINESE STUDENT MINISTRY

The newly formed Chinese Student Ministry (CSM) was begun by well-regarded leaders in the evangelical Chinese Church for the purpose of discipling Chinese Gordon College students in a way that takes into account the intricacies of their cultural context. Weekly gatherings include dinner, worship, Bible study and prayer. The CSM is currently studying the book of Romans.

OUTDOOR FELLOWSHIP

This adventure-based discipleship group brings together students who have an interest in outdoor activities for devotions, prayer, and shared experience in the great outdoors.

PRAYER MINISTRIES

Each prayer ministry invites and encourages students to pray, though the focus of each group may differ. Groups range from prayer for our campus, community and this nation, to prayer for the persecuted church and global prayer needs. 

MEN'S MINISTRY

Gordon College Men’s Ministry is made up of small groups that meet regularly in the dorms for Bible study, prayer, fellowship and accountability. Men’s Ministry also partners with local churches and organizations to serve the community in various ways.
