LifePointe Groups
CrossPointe offers various small groups (called LifePointe groups) to foster Christ-centered community among CrossPointe’s members and attendees. They meet regularly for fellowship, teaching and common interests, and according to gender, stage in life, marriage status, etc. This brings a lot of variety (and sometimes confusion) to our small groups!
Here is an overview of LifePointe groups for our Fall semester, set to begin in mid-August. Not all details have been included, so contact group leaders for specific dates, locations, costs and any other information not found in this overview.
