Home groups are the core of our community.
Groups provide the opportunity for fellowship, Bible study, prayer, and accountability with the goal of nurturing maturity of faith. It is here that we wrestle with the issues of living an intentional and faithful life for God.
It is built on the desire and action of growing and helping others to grow.
We encourage everyone to be an active participant in a Home Group (not just an attendee). It is a place to pray, learn, fellowship, encourage and speak truth to one another out of love (not superiority or judgment), letting others do the same for us.
"The fellowship in my homegroup is so rich because we consist of people from all different life stages and from different cultural backgrounds across the world"
"I get to learn about how God's love is unique to each of us and yet we are bonded by that same love"
"The physical presence of other Christians is a source of incomparable joy and strength to the believer.”
"I personally have been experiencing significant spiritual growth over the years that I have been part of the Home Group"

We are keen to connect and build meaningful relationships with one another by sharing our stories, lifting one another up in prayer, and delving into what it means to be a follower of Christ in the midst of an anxious, yearning, broken yet beautiful world.

Our home group is both fun and loving. We laugh a lot but we can be very serious.
Each of us knows that it is safe for us to share our struggles and our triumphs. There is no pressure to be transparent but no risk in being so. Our shared hope is to help each of us come closer to Jesus in a way that is loving and respectful.
We are a happy blend of East Asian and Caucasian but we would love to broaden the mix.
We range from Christians new to the faith to those with several decades of perhaps erratic growth. Some grew up in the faith, others experienced sometimes dramatic conversions.
We vary widely in age and personal circumstance but all are young at heart. Most, but not all, are parents or grandparents. Among us are homemakers, entrepreneurs, teachers, engineers, scientists and even an ancient former diplomat.
Most importantly, we are all profoundly grateful to be members of the Body of Christ and eager to share that gratitude with others.
Schedule: Every Monday 7.30pm to 9.00pm
