SMALL GROUPS
A church through small groups, not with small groups...
We believe discipleship is meant to happen through relationship to Jesus and one another (John 13:34-35). This makes gathering in small group communities throughout the month a top priority for our us; Sundays are a celebration of our connections throughout the week!
Each season (Sep-May) members of our congregation step up to lead small groups focused on topics they're passionate about. There's always room for you in our groups, so please don't hesitate to reach out. Find a group you're interested in visiting HERE.
