New lIfe Small Groups

Sharing life through community is part of our design, but meaningful relationships aren’t always easy to find. That’s why Small Groups exist—to make these life-changing relationships relevant and accessible to you. Each small group at New Life looks a little bit different and reflects the personalities and passions of the people in them. Still, they all have the same commitment to bring people together and help each person grow in their relationship with God.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • At New Life, Small Groups are about community. They’re environments for you to grow in your walk with Christ, to build relationships with others, to be cared for and to use your spiritual gifts. Small Groups set us up to do life together and grow in our faith.

  • Small groups are typically around six to ten people — in a similar stage of life or with a common interest — who gather together once a week in homes, at the church or other places in the community. You’ll share what God is teaching you through the selected study and challenge each other to dig deeper in God’s Word and pray for each other.

  • We desire to see you grow closer to Christ and find others to walk alongside you to help challenge and encourage you. We try to make joining a group simple. We will have sign-ups posted during service and on our website starting in October 2024.
