Our Life Group Pastor Katie will prayerfully place participants in groups of about 10-15 people. We group by age, marital status and life stage. Rooted Groups are made up of married couples, men, or women. A substantial amount of prayer and thoughtfulness go into creating groups that we believe will provide the best experience for those who attend. We do our best to honor friend or leader requests when possible.
