WELCOME TO WINTER 2025

Life flows in seasons, and we want to make it easy for you to be in the right Life Group in each season. This is why we have new groups that start and stop three times a year in what we refer to as “semesters.” 

WHAT TO EXPECT

This is our “free market” semester where people can gather together based on things they enjoy and that are important to them — such as men’s and women’s groups, young adults, Bible studies, prayer groups, book studies, and more. Our groups are geared toward discipleship with the goal of growing deeper in our faith.

here’s how it works…

HOW TO SIGN UP FOR A GROUP:

  • scroll down and browse through the list of groups — categorized by day, type of group, etc.

  • find the group that’s right for you

  • click on the button at the bottom of the page to sign up

already part of a life group?

You do not need to sign up again! Each semester you are automatically enrolled in your group. But feel free to scroll down and check out what your group will be doing together!

ALREADY PART OF A LIFE GROUP BUT WANT TO SWITCH?

No problem! Since we automatically enroll existing Life Group members each semester, simply get in touch with your Life Group leader and let them know you want to opt out.

NEW to Life Groups!

In conjunction with our regular Life Groups this semester, we are introducing separate, dedicated evenings for men, women, young adults, and married couples to gather together at the church — men on Monday nights, women on Tuesday nights, young adults on Wednesday nights, and marriage couples on Friday nights.

For all groups, the evening will begin at 7pm with worship, and then we will break off into small groups for discussion. This semester, the groups will all be focusing on the same topic:

  • Men’s Groups: “Wild at “Heart by John Eldredge

  • Women’s Groups: “The Emotionally Healthy Woman” by Geri Scazerro

  • Marriage Groups: “Alpha Marriage.”

If you would like to gather with other men, women, young adults, or married couples in this new setting, please select the group/leader using the bottom at the bottom of the page. If the group is full, it will be noted. If you don’t have a group preference, please indicate that as your choice, and we will find the right group for you!
