Care Groups

Small Care groups meet once a week, for about an hour often at a group member's home. The hour usually includes an opening prayer or meditation, a song and review of the scripture lessons from the preceding Sunday. The scriptural readings to further promote understanding on how to make God’s word relevant and meaningful in our everyday lives. These small and intimate groups are driven by prayer support for the members and engaging fellowship. There are opportunities every week to join a group or simply visit. Groups are always open and everyone is welcome.

Groups meet both in private homes and at the church campus. For more information about meeting locations please contact the church.
