There’s a Group for You
Classes
Come as you are any week to these mid-sized groups where you can meet a variety of people. No prior Bible knowledge or sign up is required. Classes predominantly happen on Sunday mornings between or during worship services. Occasionally there are midweek options.
Life Groups
Make new friends as you learn to live your faith with a small group of people. Committing to gather for Bible study and prayer creates a place to care for each other’s life experiences as you grow in Christ. New groups form in the fall, new year, and spring. Some groups meet on a short-term basis, and others are ongoing. Sign ups are below.
