Grow and serve
What does spiritual growth look like? How does it even begin? Here at The Orchard, we believe growth is a process that occurs best when you are firmly rooted in God’s Word and intentionally developing meaningful connection with others in a small group setting. LIFE Groups are a place where, together, we open our Bibles so that life in Christ is fostered!
Use the tool below to help search for a LIFE Group. All groups accepting new members are listed online so you can find a group that fosters the best opportunity for your spiritual development.
