At Piedmont Church, we encourage adult members and friends to get connected to a small group of other folks, who gather together for study, support and friendship.

New Small Groups are being formed regularly.  So, please keep an eye out for a group that you might consider joining. For more information, please contact Rev. Don Ashburn at: don@piedmontchurch.org, or (510) 547-5700, ext. 105

Here are our current Small Groups:

Men’s Bible Study gathers bright and early on Saturday mornings (coffee provided!) at 7:30 am in the Founders Room.  We read and discusses (in a very free-flowing manner) the books, letters and other writings in the bible for an hour, and usually cover a chapter or part of a chapter each week.  Our discussions are based on the structure set out in the LifeChange bible study series.  We usually have between a dozen and sixteen weekly participants. Our perspectives on the bible and on the meaning of being a Christian vary considerably which makes for some challenging and stimulating deliberations. For more information, contact Eric Behrens.  Eric has a Masters of Divinity, received in 1974.

Women’s Bible Study meets on Thursday mornings at 10 am in Guild Parlor. No previous Bible experience necessary. Contact Rev. Dottie Hutch, or  Judy Wright for more information.

Small Group Study meets every Tuesday at 7 pm in the home of Bob and Judy Wright. If you are interested in joining this study please email Bob and Judy Wright, or call them at: (510) 336-1510
