Groton Bible Chapel | New Haven, CT

Open House Overview
If your church is not currently running a Re:generation ministry but you'd like to see if it's a good fit, this is the place to start. Spend three hours learning from Groton Bible Chapel's leaders about the purpose of Re:generation and how it works, then stay for an actual Re:generation ministry night and see it in action. Your ticket includes a copy of the course materials and a meal.
Churches already running Re:generation are welcome, but this is an introduction built for churches not yet offering it.
What you’ll experience
At this Open House, you'll learn about Re:generation, experience a ministry night, and get an opportunity to ask questions of ministry lay leaders and staff.
You'll hear the mission, vision, and distinctives of Re:generation, and a testimony of what this ministry makes possible, so you understand the heart before the mechanics.
Leaders will walk you through the ministry model, from weekly structure to how the pieces fit together to help people find healing and freedom in Christ.
You'll learn the start-up process and the resources available, so you leave with a clear picture of what launching Re:generation would take.
After dinner with ministry leaders, you'll sit in on a live Re:generation night and experience firsthand what participants experience.
Schedule
In one afternoon and evening, this event is built to teach you about the ministry and answer all of your questions. Here's how it flows.
