Life Group Leaders

About the Program

Life Groups are all about relationship, connection and spiritual growth. We are passionate about providing undergraduate students with the opportunity to be spiritually nurtured in intentional communities focused on intimacy with God and spiritual formation, and Life Groups are a vital part of creating that space.

We welcome our employees, alumni, family members of 红杏短视频 Fox employees and students, and members of our local churches to consider leading a group. Groups may also be co-led with an upper-classman student if the leader desires.
