Small Groups
Small Groups are relaunching in the new year! If you are already in a Small Group, you should be hearing from your leader soon. If you haven’t joined one yet, what are you waiting for? Find out more below and sign up today!
Small Groups restart the week of 1/12.
EVERYONE is encouraged to join a small group that uses the 4R Model of reviewing the past week through praise, receiving God's word through scripture, responding in prayer, and redirecting our spiritual gifts toward others.
There are so many amazing reasons to be in a small group, so don’t miss out on your opportunity to be a part of one. Learn more and sign up to join one HERE.
