Life Groups permit The Beacon and the Life Group participants to grow! Life Groups enable us to be "big" and "small" at the same time. No matter how large The Beacon grows, you will have a place where you fit in and ARE needed. Life Groups seek to accomplish these three primary things:

  1. Provide a loving empathetic faith family
  2. Carry out God's vision for The Beacon
  3. Allow all participants to grow

We believe Life Groups are essential for personal growth and the true development of God's New Church known as The Beacon. Come and be a part of the faith adventure!
