From the beginning of Briarwood Presbyterian Church, small groups have been foundational to our growth and outreach. Small groups highlight four key values:
- Interactive Bible studies
- Intercessory prayer
- Intimate fellowship and encouragement
- Intentional ministry
Finding a small group at Briarwood is easy. Just fill out the form below, browse the small groups list, or contact Leigh Ann Reese.
