Small Groups

In order to fully experience the joy of being part of a body of believers, participation in small groups is vital. We develop closer friendships with other members, we deepen our spiritual growth, and we contribute to the greater good of the church, our community, and our world. Walk-ins are always welcome. If you have questions please feel free to call 815-734-4853 or use the "Contact Us" link on this website.
