Our Bible Class/Small Groups

Our Bible classes, which meet weekly, provide wonderful opportunities for people of all ages to learn the Bible in a safe, encouraging environment of peers. In addition to Bible study, our classes serve as fellowship and/or ministry groups. Each class has its own personality, but all classes provide many fellowship, service and ministry opportunities. We try hard not to let people fall through the cracks. If you want to get plugged into our church, the best way to do it is through one of our many Small Groups. Every Small Group is open to visitors. If you need help finding a Small Group that is right for you, or you want to start up a new Small Group, don’t hesitate to let us know.
