3 ABOUT LIFE GROUPS. We believe life is better in community Life Groups are an exciting way for you to meet and connect with others at Metro Tab! They are the way we make a big church feel small. Life Groups provide a fun-filled, relaxing environment for people to engage in meaningful relationships by doing life together; laughing and growing in all seasons of life. Why Life Groups? We believe that our church must grow larger and smaller at the same time. Life Groups are an important key in developing relationships with others who share your interests or are dealing with similar life issues. How are Life Groups structured? Life Groups are comprised of small groups that meet regularly. Groups are available for adults of all ages. To get started you will search for a group based on your stage of life (adults, couples, single, young adults, men and women only groups). From there you can read the descriptions of the various groups and find a group that s a good fit for you. When and where do Life Groups meet? Life Groups meet in various locations (homes, businesses, restaurants, Metro Tab campus) and at different times of the day, throughout the week. When can I connect to a Life Group? Life Groups launch 2 times a year (spring & fall). An exciting event called Life Group Launch will occur prior to each semester for you to meet Life Group Leaders and sign-up for one or more of our many groups. You do not have to wait for Life Group Launch; most groups are open to new members throughout the semester. Find the right group for you... We encourage you to select a few groups that interest you, contact the leaders and try out different groups before choosing the best one for you. The simple strategy to finding success in groups is to not give up. We believe there is a group that is right for everyone...including you! Have questions about groups or getting connected at Metro Tab? Contact Adam Aziz, Director Of Ministries Office: adam@metrotab.net
