Life Is Better Together
The heart of our women’s ministry is in small groups.
Our small groups aim to help each of us connect in authentic community with other women, grow in relationship with Jesus Christ through the study of Scripture, and join in God’s mission through service.
We have three distinct types of small groups - Learn Together, Practice Together, and Mom's Together
Which Group is Right For You?
Learn Together Groups
The heart of Learn Together groups is just that—learning.
As we grow in our knowledge of God, we learn to love Him more deeply. No matter what season of life you’re in, we all remain students of God’s Word, continually discovering new truths that shape us.
If your primary desire is to dig into Scripture and grow in your understanding of the Bible, a Learn Together group is a great place to start.

Practice Together Groups
The focus of Practice Together groups is spiritual growth through practicing the disciplines of the faith. While Bible study is central, participants are also encouraged to engage in other disciplines such as prayer, fasting, and service.
Because these groups go deeper, they require a higher level of commitment. Joining a group begins with a face-to-face conversation to ensure you understand the group’s purpose, the Bible study being used, and the commitment involved.

Moms Together Groups
Moms Together is a group of mothers in a similar phase of life - preschool children, school age children, mothers of teenagers, etc.
Moms Together groups meet in round table format with the same women for one to two years, building community that allows you to be known and loved without judgment.

Practice Together Groups
Life With God
Developed by Grafted Life’s spiritual-formation pastors and directors, Life With God offers a unique kind of small group experience. Here, participants explore what life in relationship with God can truly be—personal, experiential, and alive.
The rhythm combines personal study throughout the week with meaningful small group gatherings, creating space to listen, share, and be formed together.
Practicing The Way
These studies from John Mark Comer help us learn to live like Jesus by practicing His rhythms—things like Sabbath, prayer, and simplicity. Together, we create space for the Spirit to shape us into people marked by love, joy, and peace.
This Group Meets Tuesdays at 6pm
