just as iron sharpens iron so one person sharpens another. - proverbs 27:17
Life Groups are about doing life together. They’re a place to build genuine friendships, grow in faith, encourage one another, and find community beyond Sunday mornings.
Whether you’re looking for meaningful conversation, Bible study, prayer, shared interests, or simply a place to connect with great people, there’s a Life Group for you. Each group has its own personality, focus, and rhythm, but they all share the same purpose: helping people grow closer to God and to one another.
Explore the groups that are currently running and see which one is a fit for you. If you would like to know more about a specific Life Group or are wondering if you can join a group, email us at lifegroups@svcf.ca or fill out our Life Groups Inquiry Form Here .
