WHAT ARE LIFE GROUPS?

Life Groups are the best place to connect with other people here at Monclova Road. If you are not involved in Life Groups, we encourage you to find one! Below you will find all the information about the different Life Groups offered currently. Let’s connect with people on a more personal level and let’s do LIFE together! If you have any questions about Life Groups, you can contact the church office at (419) 866-0773
