Every student gets to be a part of their own life group where they will journey through life’s victories and hardships together, as well as build relationships with leaders who are dedicated and passionate about following Jesus. Life groups are at the heart of everything we do because we believe we are better together.
Everything we do on a youth night, from the hangout and games, to the worship and message is done to build the relationships made in our life groups.

Covid Update: Due to Covid, instead of gathering together in homes, we have decided to bring our Life Groups back to the Clover Bar Campus. Youth gather together in Life Groups to engage in their own unique youth experience. Each Life Group is grade specific and is made up of dedicated leaders who walk with students in authentic community where our goal is to see students be known by their peers, and to be known by Jesus. We do this together, through intentional and real conversations, fun, laughter through play and adventure.
A key part of our gatherings revolves around a discussion-based video curriculum that we produce to be biblical, practical, and relevant to teenagers as we learn to follow Jesus together. Current and past series are available online at praxisseries.ca.

Recalibrate - Throughout the year, the senior high Life Groups gather together at the church for Recalibrate. Every time we gather, youth catch a glimpse of what God is up to in each house and get to learn about each unique community. This is a great first-time event for senior highs to meet friends, hang out, engage in fun large group activities, enjoy free food, worship through music, and celebrate what God is doing in and through their peers and leaders!
Recalibrate dates for the year: October 27, January 12, March 9, and April 13

  • Face masks will be mandatory for all indoor activity
  • Physical distancing will be maintained as much as possible
  • Hand sanitizing will be expected when entering and leaving the building
  • Drop off - students will head straight to their grade cohort will be hanging out (stay tuned for detailed info on this closer to kickoff).
  • Pick up - text your child to notify them you've arrived and wait in your vehicle for them. If they do not have a device, a life group leaders phone number will be provided to you.
