As believers, we are designed for fellowship and connection with one another and Life Groups provide that opportunity in a smaller setting. Life Groups meet on a semester basis (spring, summer, fall). Each semester we publish a listing of the Life Groups that will be meeting and all the of the needed details for you to join! Life Groups range from bible studies, dinner gatherings, leisure activities, and more.
