The larger the church, the more intentional you need to be about it, simply because of all the people. My church is large, we have smaller classes that meet Sunday and small groups that meet during the week that people need to inquire about, as well as serving opportunities - anything to pare down the sheer number of people you need to wade through. If a church is small, you've already got that smaller group and people tend to get to know each other much more naturally. It's perfectly normal to me for new people to come into my small men's group who didn't previously know anyone. Some stay, some do not. Another good opportunity - lunch after church. If the church is organizing a lunch, it could be as simple as going to it. People need to sit down at tables to eat, and that is where a number of people meet.Thanks for the replies everyone! Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you make friends at a church if you mostly sit and listen? I don't have any friends in the states since I moved from Israel and hope to connect with people at my local church.
