"It was my first mini-church and I didn't want to go, but the Spirit put it on my heart. I came and I was amazed at how "real" everyone was with their testimonies. It confirmed that the only place our "hope" comes from is from the Lord. I think we all received great encouragement from one another as we shared our struggles (past and present) and the scriptures reminded me that through each and every struggle (as we personally had been in a long desert) that God never abandoned us, but walks along side us each and every day. And a bonus was that now I know 10 more faces in this very large church! Loved it ..."
"I really enjoyed my mini church, I got to know and connect with people that live close to me and attend Faith. I also invited a couple that had never been in a mini church and they also connected and seemed to like the message as much as I did! One of the things the hope series reminded me is that God is always there, I don't have to rely on myself to figure it all out."
"The leaders made us feel comfortable from the moment we came in and outside the group when we see each other at church. Their insight and love of God's word was apparent and opened my eyes to the love of God more than I had seen before."
