Community Groups
We believe intentional relationships are key to sustained spiritual growth. That's why small groups meeting together are such an important part of our discipleship strategy. In a community group, people study God's word together and discuss the issues and challenges of life. It's also where they pray, care for one another, snack on some great food and are missed if they don't show up.
Practically speaking, there will never be a way for the staff or pastors to personally minister to everyone who attends our church. That's why we place such a high premium on group life. It's how we minister effectively Eastridge. To find out more about community groups, we encourage you to join one or contact us at .
