I decided to join a Life Group and be part of a smaller, more close-knit community where my family and I could build meaningful relationships, pray together, and grow spiritually in Christ. I reached out to and tried a few different Life Groups, and felt a strong sense of belonging to one of them. It just felt like the perfect fit for us. I am so blessed by the commitment and brotherly love we share with each other. We encourage one another in our faith journeys, and there’s a genuine sense of care and support. My Life Group leader plays a big role in fostering this environment, as she’s always making sure that everyone has an opportunity to contribute and feel involved, ensuring that we all grow together. It’s encouraging to be part of a space where everyone’s voice and perspective are valued. However, if I am honest, it’s a struggle to make sure that me and my family stay committed to attending regularly. I’m always reminding myself that each of us has a role to play in the body of Christ, and it’s important for us to contribute to the community in meaningful ways. Fellowship and being active participants in community is important. Despite the busy nature of life, we prioritize attending the Life Group gatherings, and I continually remind myself of the significance of being faithful in this commitment. Not too long ago, we were praying for our visa extension. It was a time of uncertainty, but our Life Group came together to pray with us. During that waiting period, we felt a deep sense of peace and encouragement, not just from the prayers, but from the words of comfort and support from our Life Group. God answered our prayers in His timing, but the strength and encouragement we received from the Life Group during that season made all the difference in our journey. My husband and I always try to encourage others that being part of a Life Group can really enrich your spiritual life, like it has ours. It’s a place where you can build strong, supportive relationships, grow together in faith, and experience the power of community.
