small group communities:
Gather fortnightly
Share meals together
Pray for one another
Take communion together
Live out the way of Jesus in everyday life
Family Time, Gather & Eat (30 mins)
Eating together is the secret sauce to creating deep and fun community. We recommend you make time at the beginning of every session to hang out together, and a specific time of eating together between sessions blocks. It doesn’t have to be fancy - order pizza or a potluck dinner are all great options.

Curriculum (45 mins)
This is our time to dig in deep to what God wants to teach us, and to grow together into the likeness of Jesus. This time together will be beautiful if everyone leans in, commits to being safe listeners, and refuses to be anything other than vulnerable in our heart posture before God. It is in this place we must humbly come before God and say, “Lord I want to meet with you, I want you to change me, and I want you to do it alongside and in the midst of this community of brothers and sisters”.
