Welcome to Bayside Small Group’s Web page!
Let me first thank you for your interest in exploring the many sites of why we as a Church exist in our community. Everything we strive to accomplish is to get our folks and our guests to do three things. This will show you how small groups fit into our process of maturing believers.
First of all is to “LOVE GOD”. Everything we do is to encourage everyone to have a relationship with Jesus. God places a tremendous emphasis in His Word on relationships. The Ten Commandments that He gave us are entirely focused on relationships: how we relate to God and how we relate to others. The most important relationship is a personal relationship with our heavenly Father through His Son Jesus Christ.
Second “LIVE TRUTH”. As our church continues to grow larger, it must also grow smaller, ensuring that no one is “lost in the crowd” and everyone is ministered to during the peaks and valleys of life. Small Groups provide our church members with a way to connect with others who want to grow as Christians during times of sharing, caring, Bible study and fun.
Third. “SERVE OTHERS”. Groups provide an outstanding opportunity for people of all walks of life to discover Jesus in a new and exciting way while learning how to "live the difference" He has made in our lives.
We strongly encourage you to become a part of a Small Group, joining with others in a mission to grow closer to our Lord and helping others enjoy having a wonderful relationship with our Savior. Take a moment now to pray for God's direction in which Small Group He wants you to serve in.
There is a Small Group that fits your schedule and lifestyle. For information of small groups, contact Grady Cooper or Vicki Pearcy at 344-8327

Our Son Worshippers Class does just that. We come together to worship God’s Son Jesus Christ. Most of our members are from age 50 to 80. Because we are a rather large class we are organized into four care groups. These smaller groups allow members to get to know one another better and effectively minister to each others needs in Christian love. After the care groups meet, members assemble together to study a lesson from God’s word. The class is fortunate to have two teachers, David Deal and Deanna Dalton, who use a team teaching approach. These two teachers apply the ancient truth of God’s word to the times in which we live with a diversity of presentation styles. Guests and new members are always welcome!
