We are better together.
Sharing life, sharing faith.
Our church believes that followers of Jesus need each other. God has created us for community. We come together in smaller groups to build Christ-centered relationships that allow us to encourage and challenge each other. We share life together, pray together, spend time in the Word together and serve our Lord together.
Most of our life groups are open to new people but we do attempt to limit them to approximately 12 members so that each group can truly experience community. Use the contact form on this page to let us know you're looking for a group and we will connect you to a group leader who can share more details.
