Growth Groups

In addition to Sunday morning worship, Hebron offers Growth Group. Growth Groups are an opportunity for people to meet with others in a relaxed setting that are made up of 6 to 12 people. These groups are a place where we can study the Bible, grow in faith, encourage one another to grow in our love and knowledge of God, share joys and concerns and see how God transforms us through the study of the Bible and through the shared life of others.

Winter/Spring 2026 term-check the descriptions for start dates and locations.
