Grace Groups

Grace Groups are for everyone.  No matter where you are on your life's journey, you are welcome to be a part of a small group of people who enjoy developing deeper friendships, growing,  giving and having fun together.

 

We are developing new Grace Groups and will have periodic training for those interested in facilitating a new group.  We are open to beginning new Grace Groups for a variety of interests and life stages.

 

Grace Groups are safe places where people develop deep friendships and grow.  The size is limited to about 8-14 people.  In addition to great studies and good "hang out" time, there are opportunities to serve your community.  All of this adds up to becoming a part of something meaningful that really makes a difference in our lives and our community.
