Small Groups

Small Groups

IllinoisIV offers area-specific small groups throughout the dorms and apartments at UIUC.

We are following current University guidelines for COVID-19.
See them here: 
https://covid19.illinois.edu/health-and-support/face-coverings/
  • Face coverings are not required in classrooms or any campus spaces.
  • There are to be no additional expectations for face coverings for units, facilities and events.
  • Individuals are always welcome to wear a face covering to protect themselves.

Primarily the effect on Small Group is:
Face coverings are optional at Small Group, you are always welcome to wear one to protect yourself. (If you have concerns, please reach out to your local small group leader!)

Bible study is a core activity in our chapter because we believe that it is transformational. We use the Inductive Bible Study method because it helps us to find the central truth of a passage and build that truth into our lives. Through small groups, we are committed to building community, studying the Bible, prayer/worship, and reaching our campus. Even if you are exploring or new to the Christian faith, there is a place in our small groups for you! 

Information on ministries for international students, students in Greek life, grad students, and Ved/Med students can be found on the University of Illinois area website.
