Two kinds of small groups

  • Life Groups

    Life Groups are a year long commitment to developing relationships in the Body of Christ, and to continual growth in our Christian walk. These groups meet to engage in Christian discussion and study, to encourage one another and to share food and life together. The goal is to grow closer to Christ as and form life-long relationships with one other.  Life groups meet twice a month at various homes throughout the area.
