Community Groups
Community is where we grow in our ability to love God and love others deeply. Communities are gatherings of 10-15 people who meet weekly to share a meal, pray for one another, and learn to live like Jesus. As disciples of Jesus, we strive to re-order our lives around the lifestyle of Jesus, so we can do what He did. We call this spiritual formation. We do this by living in healthy community, having accountability with other Jesus followers, reading scripture, holding deep honest conversations, creating space for the Spirit to work, and incorporating spiritual practices into our daily lives.
The goal of these groups is to become more Christ like, and experience genuine life change alongside others. It includes and is not limited to: studies, prayer, fellowship & discipleship.
