Mid­week Small Groups Be­gin Again

MISHAWAKA– Bethel’s Small Groups will be tak­ing place start­ing Wednes­day, Sept. 21, 2022.  The small groups are of­fered to bet­ter meet the re­quests for com­mu­nity and con­nec­tions on the cam­pus.  

Any­one is wel­come to at­tend mul­ti­ple groups but will only re­ceive one Mid­week Small Group credit per week. One credit will be ap­plied to each week’s at­ten­dance re­quire­ment and can­not be saved up to ap­ply to other weeks. Most of the small groups will be on Wednes­days, but there will be a few dur­ing other times of the week.  

On Mon­days, in room 342 of the Aca­d­e­mic Cen­ter, there will be a small group called Break­ing Free 101. This group aims to equip stu­dents with the ba­sic tools needed to per­son­ally over­come emo­tional and spir­i­tual bag­gage and al­low every­one to help oth­ers do so. In­di­vid­u­als are ad­vised to come with a trusted friend of the same gen­der to serve as their part­ner. If any­one is in­ter­ested in this group, they can email bill.jones@bethelu­ni­ver­sity.edu.  

Ves­pers, a stu­dent-led wor­ship ser­vice, will meet at 9 p.m. on Wednes­days in the Kelly Au­di­to­rium. 

Res­i­den­tial hall Bible stud­ies will also hap­pen at var­i­ous times through­out the week; stu­dents should see their res­i­den­tial as­sis­tant or res­i­dent di­rec­tor for de­tails. 

For Com­mon Ground, a dis­ci­ple­ship group for stu­dents with same-sex at­trac­tion look­ing for com­mu­nity and en­cour­age­ment, stu­dents should con­tact Su­san Ti­tus for the time and place. This group is con­fi­den­tial, and in­ter­ested stu­dents must email su­san.jes­sica.ti­tus@gmail.com for de­tails. 

All of the re­main­ing op­tions oc­cur on Wednes­days at 10 a.m. and in­clude Morn­ing Wor­ship in the Kelly Au­di­to­rium, Com­muter Bible Study in AC 342, Faith & Work in AC 208, Con­ver­sa­tions with Coaches in W 101, Com­mu­nity of STEM Ma­jors Open­ing Scrip­ture (COS­MOS) in S 017, the Hon­ors Pro­gram Small Group in the BIG Room on the fourth floor of the Aca­d­e­mic Cen­ter and the Cam­pus Bible Study of the book of Mark in AC 220.
