Small Groups

Making Disciples for Jesus

Small Groups give people a place to belong. These are places people gather to find fellowship, encouragement, and fulfillment. Our hope is that everyone at 3W Church would be connected in life-giving, spiritually growing relationships that empower them for ministry.

 

New Semester starts February 2023. Stay tuned for more details.
