Want to grow closer to God? The best way is to be around other people who are growing closer to God!
The Fall Small Group Cycle kicks off on August 25 with Connect Sunday. We will transform the lobby into a tradeshow-style setup so that you have the opportunity to see all of our Interest-Based Small Groups, SERVE Teams, Growth Track Groups, and Dream Center/Outreach Teams. After each service, you can talk with leaders and sign up for more information from the groups and teams that interest you.

Outreach News
In August of 2023, just weeks after Lahaina and the Island of Maui was devastated by fire, we took our first Maui Fire Relief mission team to Lahaina. On Saturday, July 27, 2024, 11 months later, we are still partnering with Adult & Teen Challenge of Maui - providing meals and offering prayer for residents who lost their homes and Ohana. Our hearts break for these precious people. On this particular trip, our team of 7 prepared and served 90 meals at the Lahaina post office and beach park praying for countless people. Please continue to pray with us for the Ohana’s of Maui and the city of Lahaina as we bring hope and healing through assisting with relief and recovery efforts.
