...they broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts...
— Acts 2:46

Life Groups are small gatherings of people who meet regularly to connect, grow in faith, and support one another. Whether through Bible study, prayer, sharing meals, or just talking about life, these groups are about building relationships in an honest, down-to-earth environment. They’re a place where you can explore what following Jesus looks like in your everyday life.

Below are a list of our current groups. If you find one you like, sign up! ... And if you don't, maybe it's time for you to start a life group with us ^_^)
