 ROCK CREEK'S SMALL
GROUPS
You are
called to belong... not just believe. We are created for community,
fashioned for fellowship, and formed for a family; and none of us can
fulfill God's purposes by ourselves. You belong in a Rock Creek Small
Group. Our
Small Groups Ministry exists to help people
just like you. We offer Bible Studies for couples, men, women and
single adults. You might also be interested in our Digital
Photography Group, Softball Teams, Adult Literacy Class, and
Scrapbooking. Life works better when we work through it's ups and
downs with people who care.

You
cannot be what God made you to be, you cannot do what God created
you to do, and you cannot fulfill the purposes God made you to
fulfill without other people. We were made for each other. God
made us for a family. Life Groups
are Rock Creek’s Bible study groups that meet weekly or bi-monthly.
There are several groups for you to choose from: couples, men’s,
women’s, and single adults. In these groups you’ll get to know each
other, pray together and share the Bible together.

SUPPORT GROUPS
Support Groups provide a place of comfort, healing, and hope
for those experiencing life’s tragic interruptions. We want
to help you successfully walk through this time with God’s
help so that perhaps someday you may offer your hand to
another.
Rebuilding Life
Divorce is an experience that leaves you
feeling broken. Every area of your life is affected. You have feelings
you don't understand. You are separated from people you love. Your
finances may be shattered. You don't know who you are anymore. Even
though God hates divorce, it is important to remember that nothing can
separate you from His love. Rebuilding Life is a divorce recovery group
that focuses on the grace of God putting your life back together again
and leading you toward wholeness.

Celebrate Recovery
Celebrate Recovery is a
Christ centered recovery program that helps those with hurts, habits,
and hang-ups to step out of denial and into God’s grace. Through this
program, broken people with all kinds of co-dependencies have been
transformed by the power of Christ. They have discovered hope and change
they thought was beyond their reach. The group meets every Tuesday,
including holidays, at 6pm.
Empty Arms Support Group
A
child who loses their parents is called an orphan. A
person who loses their spouse is called widowed. But
there is no word for a parent who loses a child. Empty Arms offers care and
comfort for parents and families dealing with the loss
of a child due to still birth. This ministry will help
you cope with the pain and re-establish your joy. This
group is led by Chad and Nancy Harvison who lost their
daughter, Hannah Grace, through stillbirth at 23 weeks.
Through that experience of pain and loss, God has shown
them that parents and family members need the
reassurances of God to help cope and eventually begin
the healing process. Chad and Nancy have since been
blessed with a son, Joshua Taylor. For
information on future meetings of Empty Arms, contact
Chad and Nancy
Harvison or call
Keith
Jackson
at 225-8684.
Military Support
Group
Many
of us have friends, colleagues or family members in
military service who are serving overseas, meeting the
call of the nation. Our eternal gratitude, thoughts and
prayers are with them, and with all the men and women of
our armed forces. We pray for their speedy and safe
return home. If you are interested in participating in a
Military Support Group, please email
westevensma@hotmail.com.
Cancer Support Group
Have you or someone in your family been diagnosed with
cancer? Let God show you that you are not alone. Rock Creek
patients, survivors, friends and family members are forming

meets in the RC Care Center from 9am-10am on the fourth
Sunday of each month. Email
Rock Creek Cancer Support
for more information. Future Dates:
Sep 28, Oct 26, Nov

SaveOne (Post-Abortion Support
Group)
SaveOne is a nationally recognized program that teaches
women how to be set free from the symptoms of Post-Abortion
Syndrome. We have adopted it as our new format for our
post-abortion support group for women. Groups meet in the
Rock Creek Care Center for six Saturdays. If you are dealing
with fear, anger, guilt, and sadness over an abortion, we
invite you to join us. It will heal you emotionally and
