Small Groups
Our small group Bible studies are a great place to have fun, build deep relationships, grow in faith, or explore faith for the first time! No need to bring anything, we have everything for you! Just come prepared to participate in discussion with an open mind. We study passages straight from the Holy Bible to see what it says and how it applies to our lives. No previous knowledge or experience required. Our Bible studies are meant for people of all backgrounds, whether you've read a passage a million times, or have never opened the Bible. This is the place for you!
We have many small groups throughout the week to fit your schedule and needs. Each small group studies the same passages.
