There are 2 types of groups to be Connected to at LIFE:
Lifegroups - Great for people who want to connect regularly to do life together by talking about God’s word, praying for each other and having fun. There are many varieties that meet across the city on different days.
Interest Groups - An opportunity to meet with other people who share the same passions and interests as you. These may be seasonal and not as regular as a Lifegroup. All Interest Groups at LIFE are open to you, no matter what centre you are a part of.
