One of our favorite ways to build relationships and grow in faith is through small groups. Some focus on faith formation, some are interest-based, and others center around service projects. No matter the style, there is always room for YOU and no experience is necessary to join, just a desire to connect with others.
We believe in the power of small groups to help foster relationships -- with God, with Jesus, and with each other. Explore what we have to offer.
Seasonal Small Groups are those that meet for 4-6 week sessions, studying a specific curriculum each time. We generally offer seasonal groups in the fall, winter, and spring - with signups available about a month beforehand. Opportunities coming soon!

These groups are geared toward a special interest or need in our community. Each group has a ministry associated with it, whether it be as simple as supporting mothers in the day-to-day chaos of life, or as wide as creating quilts or prayer shawls to wrap people in the love of God when they most need to feel it.
Note: at this time, our group is working from home and connecting via email.
