Purpose
"To honor God by loving, learning, and serving together."
At A Small Group
Each Small Group is as unique as the
people who make it up. No two Small Groups are exactly the same, but
there are certain things that all Small Groups have in common: They
have fun, share their lives, encourage each other, grow closer to
Christ, and serve others together. It's in this setting that you can
find the authentic community and deep friendships that you've always
wanted. For more information please contact Pastor Shawn.
Fulfilling CLC's Mission
