Life Groups are one of the best ways within the church body to deepen our connection with Jesus and with one another. A Life Group is a small gathering of people who meet on a regular weekly basis to pray together, encourage each other and fellowship. We pray for one another's needs and ask the Lord to pour Himself out on the people in our lives, in our community. Your Life Group becomes a close-knit, Christ-centered family ready and willing to be there for you in times of physical, financial or emotional hardship, as well as providing extra hands with moving, renovating or celebrating. Meetings are friendly, informal and generally a lot of fun. Most groups meet on Tuesday evenings. Church membership is not a requirement for participation. Everyone is welcome, but we strongly encourage anyone who regularly attends Christ Community Church to join a Life Group. We have groups in various locations and age ranges.
