cell group
Clandestine activist cluster
A cell group is a small, close-knit gathering within a larger organization.
In churches, cell groups are intimate meetings—typically in homes—for prayer, Bible study, and fellowship, functioning as subdivisions of the congregation.
In political or military contexts, a cell group is a secretive unit operating semi-independently: The resistance organized into cell groups to avoid detection.
