Groups

At Great Lakes we believe life is a team sport- best done together.  That’s why Growth Groups are a huge part of GLC. It is the best way to meet new friends, dig deeper in your faith and to make a difference in the world- all while having lots of fun!  As our church continues to grow, we know it’s near impossible to do all these things during a Sunday Service so that’s why joining a Growth Group is so crucial.  Whether it’s a game night, a book study or volunteering at a local shelter- we know we’ll have the right group for you!

Here’s how it works…

  • We offer Growth Groups three times a year [Feb-April, July-August, October-December]
  • You’ll join an activity group, a study group, a dvd group, a sermon-based group, and/or a service group.
  • You’ll meet for 6-10 weeks and have a blast!
  • After the group ends, you’ll relax for about a month then join another group! Easy. Fun. Lifechanging.

Lead a Group!

You don’t have to have it all together. You don’t have to know everything about anything. You don’t have to do all the work. You don’t have to come up with all the ideas.  You don’t have to be a Bible scholar.  However, you must enjoy having fun, creating a safe place for people to be real, and facilitating conversations or activities.
