People can easily feel a bit disconnected from a church. They can attend church, be part of a large crowd, but never really get involved, make friends, develop their spiritual gifts or be accountable in a practical way. Being part of a Life Group provides the opportunity to fulfil these important elements of church life. As we get bigger, we have to get smaller at the same time - we do this through Life Groups, which meet two to three times a month. Life Group leaders are also available to pray, visit, counsel and support their members. We would therefore encourage everybody to not only attend church services, but to also be part of a Life Group.


There are Life Groups base on interests (business people or running as an example), family life (single, married, parents for example) and age groups (campus students, young adults, families for example). There’s a Life Group for everyone.

To Develop Gifts

It is a place where Christians can develop and use their God-given gifts and abilities to help others.

It is a place where Christians can bring their friends, neighbours and relatives who want to learn more about the life that is in Jesus Christ.
