Small groups empower people, invite discussion, and invite you into a deeper relationship with others, yourself, and God. They offer an invitation to be open, and connected, and even give and receive help in practical ways.
Los grupos pequeños potencian a las personas, invitan a la conversación y te invitan a una relación más profunda con los demás, contigo mismo y con Dios. Ofrecen una invitación a estar abiertos y conectados, e incluso a dar y recibir ayuda de forma práctica.

This group is for those 60 and older in our community.
As years increase it can begin to seem even more urgent that we connect ever more deeply and meaningfully with the unique purpose God has for each of us. This is not only because doing so assures a greater sense of wholeness, but even more essentially, because preparedness for Heaven and serving eternally in the kingdom of God is our ultimate shared goal as believers. The 60’s plus group will connect you and hopefully inspire you by taking a look any some biblical characters who have taken the same journey - including…..
We will help each other become more than we were yesterday, like the person he created us to be.
The group is limited in space and is for people who are committed to journeying together in faith. The tentative start date is February 10 and will meet weekly every Saturday (for 6 Saturdays) from 11-12:30 at the MQOA rectory at 30 Union St.

Do you have a heart for serving others? This group meets to reflect on the meaning of service from the perspective of the Gospel. This group also seeks to bring Christ to those around Salem and beyond through acts of service, both as a group and to support those who are already involved in volunteer work on their own throughout our community.

BETA are small groups where everyone is invited to hear, think about, and talk about the Sunday Gospels.
They always start with food, end with prayer, and in between those two, Beta group members learn, listen, share, think, and grow, guided through the upcoming Sunday's Gospel reading.
Beta lesson plans are published weekly, and YOU are invited to check them out and use them for your own growth in knowledge and faith.
If you would like to join an English language Beta group, information about group meeting days and times are available by contacting Christine Williams at [email protected].
BETA se trata de grupos pequeños donde todos están invitados a escuchar, pensar sobre, y conversar sobre los Evangelios del Domingo.
Siempre empiezan con comida, terminan con oración, y mientras tanto, miembros de BETA aprenden, escuchan, comparten, piesan, y crecen, guiados por el Evangelio Dominical de la semana que viene.
Si te interesa formar parte de un grupo de BETA en español, por favor de ponerte en contacto con nuestra coordinadora, Mari Alix, al 508-317-0820 o por correo electónico al [email protected]. ¡Gracias!
