Small Groups

"For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them."

Matthew 18:20

A Small Group is an intentional gathering, meeting regularly for the purpose of joining God’s mission. These instructions from Jesus help us understand how a missional disciple of Christ will live. We are to: Love God, Love others, Go and make disciples.
