Small Groups


Neighborhood small groups are a setting in which the truth of the Bible takes the shape of real life. Spiritual transformation happens in our initiative to follow Christ. Join a small community of women this year and walk the path of transformation together! Neighborhood small groups traditionally meet September - April.
