Small Group Questionnaire

At Beth El, we strive to connect congregants to congregants. Some people at Beth El have already found their way into small groups, meeting with the same people on a regular basis. We have created a questionnaire to help us create new small groups and direct you to existing ones. If you would like to be a part of a “small group” please select all that interest you.

Please note, each person needs to fill out his or her own form.
Contact Geryl Baer at gbaer@bethelmc.org with any questions.
