Small Groups

Spirit Alive! Supper Club

This small group is open to everyone age 17 and up interested in attending a group that is more than just about a dinner. Our  supper club is about having a good times , good conversations, and making new friends over a casual dinner. Spirit Alive! Supper Club meets on the third Thursday of the month. 

Please contact Scott Pacourek at scottp6650@gmail.com if you have any questions and/or would like to join us to see if this is a good fit for you.

Note:  Spirit Alive Supper Club will now be divided in to smaller groups of 6-8 people providing a more personal setting for a three month period (January, February, and March). In April 2025 the individual groups will be shuffled around providing the opportunity to meet new people as the group matures and grows.

Food, Froth, and Fellows

While we wait for the Holy Spirit to present a leader for this group, there will be a temporary hiatus for this ministry. Food Froth & Fellows is a small group targeted for all those who identify as male.  It is primarily a group for fellowship, a safe space for us to share experiences, concerns, or whatever is on our minds.  We try to have a "topic question" to get conversation going, but don't necessarily stick to it.  Although we meet at local micro-breweries in the Kenosha area, alcohol is totally optional, some members stick with non-alcoholic options - it's not a big deal, most of us don't even pay attention.  You don't need to be a member of Spirit Alive, we've had plenty of non-members join us.

The Garden Project

While we wait for the Holy Spirit to present a leader for this group, there will be a temporary hiatus for this ministry. The Garden Project runs from May through October. The purpose of this group is to spread the love of Christ by growing vegetables to donate to the Grace People's Panty. At the beginning of the season, there is a need for garden clean up and planting. During the growing season, there is a need for assistance with watering, weeding, and harvesting. At the end of the season, we have a final clean up.

Messy Spirituality Book Club

Messy Spirituality  is a book club that meets monthly.  We meet on the second Thursday of each month at 1 p.m. at Spirit Alive! Church. Contact Heidi Steinbrenner for more details by clicking here.

Pickleball

Are you ready to embrace the excitement of pickleball, a sport that’s making waves globally? Join the small group at Spirit Alive! Whether you're eager to learn or looking to hone your skills, this is a fantastic opportunity. From January through May, come together on the first and second Thursday evenings from 5:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. and the 3rd and 4th Sunday afternoons from 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. in the gymnasium at St. Mary’s Lutheran Church, 2001 80th Street in Kenosha. The summer months' location is typically Penoyer Park at the lakefront, but the days and times are to be determined. 
 
Dress in lightweight, comfortable clothing, and bring a dry pair of tennis shoes. A paddle is essential for play; you can find one at Walmart, Ace Hardware, Dick's Sporting Goods, or Amazon. We also have a few extra paddles available if needed. 

This is all about fun, inviting anyone over 12 to participate. 

Did you know that playing pickleball can help extend your life? So why not come and experience the joy for yourself? https://pickleballunion.com/pickleball-longevity/

Second String Choir

Interested in making new friends? Connecting with old ones? Check out our small group ministry! We are looking for people who love to sing and/or play an instrument and make a "joyful noise unto the Lord" (Psalm 100). You do not need to have the voice of an angel or pass an audition like on The Voice to join this small group. The only qualification for our "second string" choir is that you'd like to make a "loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise" (Psalm 98) with friends. Please join us on the third Monday of the month at 6:00 p.m. If you are interested in joining us or would like more information, please contact Krista Hoth at 262.764.5462 or click here to email.
