City Groups
We want to see the Emmaus story of people being transformed by Jesus happen again and again. We often see this happen in a City Group's simple practices of worship, community, and mission together.
We aim to encourage and equip anyone with the compassion and commitment to start a City Group as we celebrate Jesus stirring and sending people like He did at Emmaus.
This way, we will multiply City Groups who pray for each other through ups and downs, serve the people God has called them to be peacemakers among, and learn more about how Jesus empowers them and transforms the everyday stuff of life.
