GROUP LIFE

Encourage One Another

"And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching."    (Hebrews 10:24-25)



WHAT ARE WE AIMING FOR IN GROUPS?


Groups helps us grow as disciples of Jesus Christ.  You need others and others need you. In our Groups, we aim to develop significant relationships, study the Bible, encourage one another, worship God, and bless others.   Click here to see our Group Model.    



HOW DO GROUPS WORK?


Our Groups run seasonally, but some groups may choose to meet throughout the year.  Seasonal groups typically meet for 6-8 weeks at a time. You can sign up for a different group each session, take a break , or continue with the people you’ve connected with.



WHAT CAN I EXPECT?


Groups consist of a gathering of 8-12 people who typically meet 2-4 times a month in homes or at The Naz. At each group meeting you can expect to have a time to connect relationally, study the Bible and discuss how it applies to your life, and pray for one another.
