life GROUPS
What are Life Groups?
We believe that real spiritual growth happens when people connect face to face. That can be challenging to do from your seat on Sunday morning. With Life Groups, we encourage congregants to move from rows to circles, sharing genuine life experiences and forming lasting friendships through common interests. Life Groups provide a chance to connect with others and to spiritually grow together as members of our church family!
Sign up at the Connections Center. Groups range between 6-10 People.
New groups beginning AUGUST 2026!
Sign up at the Connections Center or contact the office!
