Life Groups

Life Groups are a great way to grow in your relationship with God and with other people who: 

  • Are in the same stage in life

  • Have similar passions for service or connection

  • Are interested in extended learning opportunities

  • Or some combination of the three!

If you would like to join a SOLLC Life Group, check out our opportunities below.
