SMALL GROUPS
A small group is a group of people who gather each week in homes, local coffee shops, church, or really anywhere. In a small group, you’ll hang out, discuss issues at the intersection of life and faith, and share in fellowship with others. Groups come in all shapes and sizes — married couples, singles, men, women, kids, no kids, workplace, under 20, over 40 — the list goes on. No matter where you are in life, there’s a group for you. We believe in small groups because we believe personal growth happens best when people grow together.
