But we believe the patterns we set now can help us chart a course for the rest of our lives. The Christian Fellowship seeks to cultivate small groups of bible studies, triads, and prayer meetings&nbsp;to help build each other up in the Lord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We encourage everyone to consider joining a small group. Small groups give you the chance&nbsp;to get to know other members of the fellowship more closely and provide you the opportunity for focused spiritual growth. There are three primary types of small groups that we&#8217;ve organized in the past: bible studies, triads, and prayer groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bible Studies<\/strong>: These groups meet regularly to go through a book of the Bible or a particular topic study to learn, discuss, and delve into God&#8217;s Word. <em>(Generally meet each week or every other week.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Squads<\/strong>: Squads are are groups of three to five who meet regularly to share the challenges, joys, and the general adventures of law school life. A mix of discipleship, peer mentoring, friendship, and camaraderie, Squads seek to form tight bonds and provide a safe space for engaging with the struggles we all go through. Each group tends to be very personalized and unique based on the individual members of the Squad. <em>(Generally meet each week or every other week.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Prayer Groups<\/strong>: Prayer groups meet regularly share prayer requests and praises with each other. There is no requirement for any individual to&nbsp;pray aloud, but each group welcomes the opportunity to pray with and for each other. <em>(Some groups meet&nbsp;every day, others meet&nbsp;each week or every other week.)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are currently recruiting leaders for bible studies and prayer groups and working to connect people interested in starting a triad. <strong>If you are interested in leading or participating in a group, please <a href=\"https:\/\/orgs.law.harvard.edu\/cf\/contact-us\/\">contact us<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Law school can be a time when keeping up with spiritual disciplines is hard.
