Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the week, some afternoons and some evenings. Check out the Small Groups page to find out more.

Serving and Volunteering

One of the best ways to feel part of the church family is to become involved through service. We believe that every Christian has God given gifts that are to be used for the common good. If you want to get to serve on a team, click here to find out more.
