We believe belonging to a small group is an important and necessary part of growing in faith. Small groups are where you will find caring people to walk with you on your journey and a safe place to explore your questions about God and life. At Allendale, any question is a good question. Even if you have never been a part of a small group before, you are welcome and invited to join.
