A SNUG is a small group which tries to do everything we expect of a small Church.
St Nicholas' has a large number of SNUGs, each with their own focus and priorities, including...
The Monday SNUG
The Gardening Ministry Team
The Life Relationship SNUG
SWAN
SHOUT
The Teen SNUG
The Samaritans Purse SNUG
Flower Minsitry Team
The Harmony SNUG
All SNUGs follow 5 guiding values, which we summarise as ‘ABCDE’...
A = All Involved
We hope every member of the Church will join a SNUG and every SNUG member to be involved in its work
B = Becoming Disciples
SNUG members help each other to follow Jesus more closely, by exploring the Christian faith together.
C = Creating Community
It's not just about learning its also about having fun and caring for one another in real practical ways.
D = Doing Evangelism
SNUG members work together to support one another’s faith sharing efforts, and to offer small outreach events
E = Encountering God
Worshipping together is an important part of SNUG life
SNUGs are how members of St Nicholas' Church work with one another for the Kingdom of God, and it is how they become better disciples of Jesus Christ
With thanks to Phil Potter for this concept ('The Challenge of Cell Church' published by BRF) NB St Nicholas is not a 'pure' cell church but we find cell concepts inspiring
