Connect Groups
Connect Groups are one of the main ways we provide for adults to get into a context of relational discipleship. We are able to “teach and admonish one another” as the scriptures instruct, when we join together for study, prayer, and support.
Most groups meet for three 8-10 week sessions from mid-September through early May, taking a break during the summer months.
We have some groups meeting during the summer! Click the button below to view them:
Why should you join?
