At Asbury, one of our purposes is to encourage people to Build Faith as they grow into mature disciples of Jesus Christ. When we participate in a small group, we are putting ourselves in a place where our faith can grow. Members of a small group share a common journey for a time. They learn, grow, share, pray, celebrate, and sometimes cry together. In small groups you can receive the encouragement, relationships and discipleship to help you know and grow in Christ.
For more information about becoming involved in a small group, please contact the church office at asbury@asburycolumbus.org.

Asbury Men
Asbury Men is a ministry of Asbury that strives to provide all men with opportunities for service and fellowship.
Service takes many forms, including financial support for local Church needs, Asbury Scout Troops, global ministries and community charities. To support the projects, we raise funds by holding theme dinners and selling “locally grown fruit”. Asbury Men also provide sponsorship of the Family Fish Fry, Church Thanksgiving Dinner, Valentine Gala, Easter Brunch and other major events that bring us together.
The Asbury Men’s Group is informal, fun, and sincere about what is done. All men of the church are welcome to participate any time and all of the time.
