Large Group

"Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another--and all the more as you see the Day approaching."
- Hebrews 10:25

Large Group is the once-a-week gathering on Thursday night of InterVarsity Christian Fellowship. Our aim is 3 fold.

  • We seek to create an open atmosphere for people to grow in community and friendship.
  • We aim to present and discuss culturally relevant topics that will challenge and encourage both Christians and non-Christians. In light of our commitment to Jesus, we often ask the question, "How would Jesus respond to this issue?"
  • We aim to demonstrate what a vital and loving Christian fellowship can be.

This week's topic:

This year, we’ve made some changes to the way the weekly schedule works. We’ve started working on a rotation of events, and they are as follows:

  • Week 1 - Social Meetings:
    The first week of the month will usually be a social of some sort - a movie night, a potluck dinner, an outing to Portsmouth. This is a great night to invite a friend who might not go to a Small Group or church with you, but would feel comfortable hanging out with some new faces.
  • Weeks 2-4 - General Meetings:
    The second and third weeks of the semester will be a meeting where we spend time hanging out, singing, and hearing speakers address a variety of interesting and relevant topics. We make an effort to have these meetings accessible to both people in all places of their spiritual walk with God.
  • Body Meetings:
    This semester, we've made some changes to the format of InterVaristy's weekly meetings. While we will meet every Thursday night (the first Thursday of the month is a social, the other three of general meetings), we've also added in an additional meeting once a month. This is a time for people who would already call themselves committed Christians to gather together for a time of extended worship in song, to share stories of what God has been going in their lives, to pray, and to hear some short teaching on God and how He's seeking to change and use us all at UNH. These meetings will be on 2/6, 3/6, 4/3, and 5/1 (the first Monday of every month) - please look at the LG meeting schedule to find what each meeting will be about.
