Spring Grow Groups! Jesus tells us in Matthew 18:20 that where 2 or 3 of us are gathered in His name, He is there with us! I’d like you to enter into the presence of Jesus this Spring by joining a Grow Group, one of Pioneer’s small groups that are designed to help you share a passion, make new friends, and grow in your faith. Grow Groups are for everyone!
We have groups for all ages, and a wide variety of interests. Many of our groups
meet online, so even if you’re not part of our local community, you can still
join a group below. Registration is now open for the spring session (February
5 – April 29). You can find all the available groups by texting the word "JOIN" to
