Life Groups

One of the primary ways in which we are making disciples of Jesus at Mission Valley is through our Life Groups.  These are weekly or bimonthly small groups which gather on Zoom or in person. We base our gatherings on living out our three practices of Love, Learn, and Live.

We love each other in Christian fellowship and community, especially when life gets messy.  Jesus said in John 13:34-35, “A new command I give you:  Love one another.  As I have loved you, so you must love one another.  By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

We learn together by studying God’s Word and other biblical topics to grow deeper in our love relationship with God. 
II Timothy 3:16-17 says, “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

And we live out our faith in Christ by encouraging, praying, serving, and humbly holding one another accountable as to how we live our lives before a watching, cynical world.  I John 4:13-14 says, “We know that we live in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit.  And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world.” 

We don’t do all these perfectly because we’re on a lifelong journey of faith between Earth and Heaven.  But we do believe Christian community is one of the best ways to walk with God and others!  In a world that is so divisive, broken, and painful, please join a Life Group to experience hope, love, growth, and joy.  We are better together!
