TYPES OF LIFE GROUPS

• Fellowship Life Groups give you a chance to meet others in a small group setting to share insights, testimonies, and needs.
• Interest Life Groups are opportunities for those with a shared affinity, such as gardening, fitness, sewing, etc.
• Service Life Groups provide an outreach to our church and community to show God’s love in a practical way.
Most of our Life Groups are open groups, so feel free to drop in anytime. Some are gender-specific. Look for the following icons to help you determine which class is right for you.

FIRST ASSEMBLY WORSHIP CHOIR
The mission of First Assembly’s choir is to worship God in Spirit and in truth. Using its gift of song, the choir strives to “lead” the congregation in worship each week. Members meet on Thursday for rehearsal and sing during the Sunday morning services. The choir also ministers at several special events throughout the year. Whatever your age, if you enjoy singing and giving glory to God, stop by, sit in on one of our rehearsals, and talk to our choir director, Mark Gordon, to see if choir is the place for you. If you can’t commit to being in the choir all the time, become a “short-term member” and be in the choir for 4-5 weeks prior to our special events! We’re sure you’ll love the choir! The choir will meet until the Independence Celebration is complete, then will take a short break, and will resume in August.
