Connect Groups
Growing Together
We have groups for all.
The Connect Group ministry is an essential part of Emmanuel Baptist Church in providing an environment for caring and a sense of belonging. This ministry can reach each person in a more personal way, allowing members to grow with and support each other.
Our groups meet regularly with different frequencies, at different times, on different days of the week and in different locations, and there will be one to suit your needs.
