Home Groups
"An environment of grace and truth"
Millcreek Community Church is not a church with small groups (also referred to as "cell groups" or "care groups"), it is a church OF small groups. Millcreek is a church that is committed to meeting in homes for fellowship, praise, prayer, and study. These "Home Groups" are an environment of grace and truth. LTG is short for Life Transformation Groups.
Why They Work
- The largest church can be broken into smaller units for discussion, praise, prayer and ministry to one another.
- Small Groups constantly expand the leadership base by allowing leaders to lead in a small group.
- The people of the church see normal people doing ministry. They are then encouraged to be involved in ministries God has called them to be and do.

- Deal with personal needs and problems among group members.
- Encourage Godly friendships and build caring relationships.
- People are personally encouraged in their faith to live for the glory of God and proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ.
