We have found that growing in our relationship with God is not a solo venture. Doing it together is better! It’s hard to make meaningful connections when we only see people on Sundays. So we meet during the week in people's homes to build real friendships, pray for each other, study the bible, do community outreach, and support each other.
Our Life Groups offer different locations and groups of people. Some groups are a mixture of singles and marrieds from different life stages. Others have a similar demographic. Still others have a special purpose, like prayer or relationship growth. Each small group has 6-15 people and all are welcoming of newcomers. They are all designed to help us make new friends, apply the Bible to our lives, grow in our gifts and ministries, and receive the support and encouragement we all need.
Sharing in the joys and challenges of life with other people who care for us leads to a rich experience in our journey with God. We get to practice what God is teaching us with others who will listen, nicely challenge, and nurture us. We get to practice new skills, use our talents and gifts, and serve people in our community with others who we know and trust.
