Being part of a small group is a really great way to make friends and find encouragement and support as we seek grow more like Jesus.
FFF (that’s Fitness, Food and Faith)
A community from Sandwich and nearby villages sharing God’s love through friendship, faith and fitness. Weekly ‘Faith & Fitness’ circuit session; occasional gettogethers around food. We meet to pray, read Scripture and plan future activities.
No Limits
A small group supporting one another to grow as Christians through Bible study and prayer -often with creative, practical activities. We stay connected and pray for each other during the week (WhatsApp), and enjoy regular socials such as a shared meal, a walk or a games night.
Open Table
We gather around food, music and gardening. We meet for monthly prayer and Bible study, small-group shared meals (often with invited friends/family), plus occasional larger meals for larger groups, walks and open-garden events. Our WhatsApp group shares encouragement, prayer requests and practical tips.
Springboard
Meets for prayer/Bible study about twice a month (afternoons), plus occasional socials. We stay connected via WhatsApp. Over the last three years our main service & outreach has been involvement with Warm Welcome lunches.
Watch This Space
A practical local-mission community around Deal, Walmer & Kingsdown seeking to love our neighbours. We meet for Bible, prayer and mutual support, and help to keep the church building open for the town. Very active WhatsApp for prayer, news and organizing.
Walk
A close-knit weekly group growing in our walk with God and with one another. We blend Bible, prayer, honest conversation and encouragement—often walking, sharing meals, or simply being present for each other.
The Belonging Course
The Belonging Course has proved to be a very enjoyable, challenging and insightful course. We are encouraging other small groups to try it and if there is enough interest we will look to run it again.
All of the people here can be contacted through admin@stgdeal.org
We are launching a number of new groups in the autumn of 2025 in order to create more opportunities for people to find places of belonging and encouragement. For more details please contact Lynne Williams or Fiona Scanlon
