Small Groups at Mt. Nebo
Small Groups are an essential part of this congregation. Here at Mt. Nebo GMC, a small group is the place where individuals are welcomed and supported as they study together, pray for one another, and hold one another accountable in living a life that reflects their love for Jesus. Most of our small groups start new studies periodically, so there is always a time for a 'new start' with an existing group. There will also be new groups onboarding throughout the year, so feel free to contact the Discipleship Coordinator about these.
