Life Centres and Interest GroupsLife Centres are groups that meet in different locations to study the bible.

Life Centres are a platform for spiritual growth, they follow a structured bible study plan created to help members read through the bible in

one year and discuss how the Word of God can be practically applied in their lives.

Interests Groups are built around common interests and like Life centres, they offer the opportunity to build

relationships, and members learn and grow together as they interact with one another based on shared

hobbies or interests.

If you would like to join a Life Group, contact Tayo Sekoni in the church office

020 8438 8285, send an e-mail to [email protected]
