...to develop significant relationships

Jesus calls us to community, not isolation. We want every willing adult, teen and child to experience authentic Christian community in a small group. Small groups are an ideal place to develop significant friendships and become more fully devoted followers of Christ in a supportive environment.

How we do small groups ...

Each small group is made up of 12-16 people who meet together weekly for a determined amount of time. Our small groups run in three semesters throughout the year: October-December, February-April, and June-August. After a group is full or the semester has started the groups are closed, so it is important to sign up quickly before the semester begins.
