Small Groups Fall Sign-Ups
September 16 & 23, 2018

Small Groups is where large churches get small. Groups are 3-12 people who meet regularly to discuss faith, go deeper in the weekly message, and support one another in their relationship with Christ. We encourage everyone to be in a small group because we can't do life alone. St. Brendan currently has 15 small groups, and we're adding several more this Fall. Look for the sign-up stations after all the Masses on September 16 & 23 or click here to see all our current groups and even sign-up online!
