LIFEgroups

Life Group Resources Guide now available! Materials are available in the church library in the Red Brick Building.

LIFEgroups promote life change through Magnification (prayer and worship), Membership (developing connection with God and each other), Maturity (deepening our understanding and application of God's Word), Ministry (becoming aware of how God has gifted us and becoming involved in service and care for others), and Mission (extending the life and the love of Christ to others).
