Sunday Morning Discipleship Groups

These are smaller groups within the larger church body in which people of similar interest gather to study and take care of one another in life. In any church, it is important that community exists in order for relationships to be real and relevant.  The passion of every group is to grow spiritually in an atmosphere of Bible-centered and relational community.  

We encourage you to visit several groups and discover which one is a fit for you. If you need help finding a fit or would like to enroll in a class click this link and fill out the form.
