GroupLink is an event we host during early Spring and Fall that allows people to learn more about our Grow Group offerings—Small Groups, Equipping Groups and Discipleship Groups. The best way to join a group is through GroupLink.
We’ll hold GroupLink events on Sundays, August 9 and 16, at each campus immediately after each service time. Each campus event focuses on groups for that particular campus. During GroupLink, you can meet group leaders, learn about groups, and register for the group or class that works best for you and your schedule.
