SMALL GROUPS
At MBC we emphasize the importance of enriching our understanding of what it means to be a follower of God. While Worship and Bible Study are the foundations of this journey, we also recognize the significant impact of connecting intimately with small groups of fellow believers to grow with God and others through Bible-based discussions, shared life experience, and prayer support.
At Magnolia Bible Church we call our small groups Community Life Groups, or CLGs. These groups are all different, but they all share a love of God.
ALL AGES & STAGES
Our CLG is dedicated to building relationships, getting to know one another, and encouraging each other to live for Jesus through the challenges of life. We will meet the 3rd Saturday of each month from 6-8 pm starting in January 2019. Dinner will be provided. Elementary and up children are welcome!
