The Practice of Formative Friendship through Spiritual FLOORmation Groups

At the core of an abiding relationship with Jesus comes a way of friendship that is a spiritual practice and discipline. Our true hope in offering opportunities for small groups is to make our way into the kind of friendships that become a demonstration in love. Ultimately, God desires to see us reach out in friendship to those who need a friend. We also hope that we find commonality in our stories and we find that, deep down, all of us long to belong and be loved.

Spiritual Life AssistantsWant to lead a group?

There are two ways to be a small group leader ...

  1. Gather a group of your friends together (three or more) and sign up by contacting Rusty St. Cyr at rstcyr@georgefox.edu. A group can have two leaders, but both must attend the training.*
  2. Become a SLA for your living area- talk with your RA to find out more information.

  3. * Leaders must attend training, which starts the beginning of the semester; we will meet for eight consecutive Fridays at that time and location.)
