Life Groups
Life Groups are relationally driven and smaller expressions of our church family, and they generally meet the first 3 weeks of the month. Each week, Life Groups spend time intentionally connecting with and praying for one another and discussing Sunday's teaching and how it applies in our lives. Discussion guides are provided, so even if you missed a teaching, you can still join in.
If you would like help with finding a group, please don't hesitate to contact us.
TRIPODS: In addition to Life Groups, we encourage you to explore Tripods where smaller groups of people come together for friendship and formation. Take a look at the Tripods page to learn more.
