LIFE Groups

Spring  2026

In Christ's body we're all connected to each other.

Experience the power of fellowship as we grow in faith, support one another, and serve in Christ’s mission. Being part of a Group or class is a great way to build deeper connections, share life’s joys and challenges, and walk together as the body of Christ. Come and be encouraged, prayed for, and challenged to live out God’s purpose for your life. Let’s grow in faith—together!
