Each group is led by a guide who prepares to facilitate fellowship, prayer, and discussion that helps the group apply the truths from the previous Sunday\u2019s sermon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">These are informal, life-on-life gatherings where relationships are intentionally cultivated. Through these groups, members encourage one another, pray together, bear one another\u2019s burdens, and care for both spiritual and practical needs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Life Group is more than a weekly meeting\u2014it is an opportunity to experience the love, support, and encouragement of the church as a family.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb title=&#8221;How do I join a Life Group?&#8221; use_icon=&#8221;on&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; body_font_size=&#8221;18px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Life Groups are organized geographically, so we encourage you to begin by looking for a group that meets near your home.
