FOREST HILL'S MISSION

What is a Life Group?
Life Groups are small groups of people who meet regularly to grow in their relationships with Jesus and each other. They study the Bible, pray, serve their communities and live as ambassadors so the next person can take their next step in knowing Jesus. Choosing community and being in a Life Group is one of the best ways to grow in your faith at Forest Hill.
