Community and Connection
Our Small Groups Ministry exists to foster community and connection outside of Sunday morning worship. The Small Groups Ministry values sharing stories, deep listening, engaging in faith exploration, putting faith in action, supporting one another, and having fun. We have many different groups that are open to various ages.
