Life Groups
Life Groups are small community groups. This is a safe place for you to grow spiritually and connect with others in your walk with God.
A large church can be overwhelming, and without community it's not enough for the spiritual development of yourself and your family. Being a part of a Life Group is a significant part of The Journey.
We offer childcare for Wednesday night and Thursday morning Life Groups. Click the button to register!
