Jesus desires for us to do life together. Each of the environments below provide opportunities for your relational connectedness and spiritual growth. However, the first thing we’d invite you to consider are Life Groups. These are the primary way we practice life in community and learn how to love one another as we share life together. We hope you’ll consider committing for a short season to participating in a life group. If you need help discerning where to engage in community as you explore these various options, reach out to luke@cherryhillsfamily.org.
