Small Groups

Our vision is to see the Church become a community of peacebuilders, where individuals both experience healing AND get equipped to work as agents of reconciliation, healing, and justice in our communities.

We believe this call toward peacebuilding is for each and every one of us who claims to follow Jesus - not just for the select few. That’s why we’ve developed small groups to provide introductions to Christian peace-oriented theology, conflict transformation, and peacebuilding skills. Attend a group facilitated by us, or use our free group guides to lead one of your own!
