You might come to the Vineyard for the lively worship or the inspiring teaching, but if you decide to make this your church family, join a home group. We like to say that home groups are the "heartbeat" of life at the Vineyard. The groups "live Jesus' life together," as we like to say: learning together, serving together, laughing together and sometimes crying together.

The majority of adults and students at the Vineyard meet informally in groups in the evening, during the day, on weekends, some every week, some every other. Home Groups are the place to know others and be known ourselves, to care for one another, to worship God, to give and receive prayer, to study and apply the Bible to our daily lives, and to simply hang out, do life, and have fun. People often find that they discover their God-given passions and abilities in a home group.

We encourage you to "shop around" and find a Home Group that will both support and challenge you. Visiting doesn't obligate you to stay. Feel free to contact any group's leader for more information and directions.
