Tribes Kickoff
We believe that Christ-likeness happens best with a group of people (Tribe) that is “doing life” together, as opposed to doing an event.
This Friday @ 6pm will be Gals and Guys Tribes kickoff. Each tribe will meet at different locations. It will be a time for friends to connect, conversations to happen, food, games and Jesus!
Send us a request to join us!
