Groups
Small groups or circles as we call it are how we develop people in community with one another.
Small groups allow us to create a culture of relationships that help us grow deeper in our relationship with Jesus and with each other.

Can I join more than one group?
It is best if you join only one group. You can try other circles but we encourage only one due to the overall goal of doing life with one another for accountability. Bible Studies that are offered at various times in the year are different and welcome to attend any you would like.
Do I have to stay in my small group?
No, anyone is free to find a circle that fits best for them. We would encourage you to try a few circles to make sure you find the best fit.
Do I have to be a member to start a small group
Yes, you will need to become a Partner of New Life to start a circle. Partnership is part of Growth Track Step 1 and offered at regular times throughout the year.
How do small group cycles work?
Our circles are continuous life groups. We encourage people to stay together for as long as possible. This builds community and accountability. Often groups will have their own cycles of starting and stopping due to the summer schedule or holidays. It’s best to check in with each individual group to see what their schedule is like.
