3. What are Free Market Cell Ministries?
Free Market Cells are small groups of people that meet weekly or bi-weekly around a shared interest. We believe that as people gather around an area they are passionate about, discipleship can happen through strong, intentional relationships. This helps us reach people where they are – at any point in discipleship, whether they have been believers for many years or they are not even sure where their faith lies. Free Market Cells build a culture of opportunity and give us freedom to reach across five generations of our church family to be strong, connected body that impacts our culture and community.
4. How often do new groups start?
Free Market Cells are set up in semesters like the school year.
