GROUPS
Groups are one of the key ways we connect with each other, grow in faith, make friends, and do life together.
Groups are gatherings of people who meet weekly or fortnightly during term time across Fiveways and Hollingdean to worship, pray and read the Bible together.
We would love to help you connect into a Group at St Matthias. Have a look and sign up to one of our groups below, and we'll be in touch with the details.

Avard Group
'Sean and Ali invite you to a group for those living in the North Brighton / West Sussex area. It's a place to spur one another on in our journey of faith and to get to know Jesus better - whilst also forming deeper friendships with each other and sharing the ups & downs of life together.

Preston Park Group

'Discovery' Group, Patcham
A group hosted by Rich and meets fortnightly at Gordon & Kat's house in Patcham. We simply create an intentional space for the spirit to move through scripture, our conversations and dessert!

'Soul Food' Group
Soul Food is a group open to all that meets in Hollingdean. Led by Kat and Doug, we are a group committed to learning and growing in faith, praying for one another and the world, and sharing the trials and joys of life all over a plate of snacks. We also try to meet for socials that often also revolve around food or getting outside together. Kat and Doug live in Hollingdean with their two primary school aged children. Kat is a Clinical Psychologist running her own practice in Brighton and working remotely for Exeter University and Doug is an IT consultant running his own consultancy business. They moved "up the hill" to St Matthias in 2017 as part of the initial plant from St Peters and have been involved in many varied areas of church life since then from Dadventure to the Worship and Production teams.
