Special Discipleship Groups
Life Transformation Groups
Through the ministry of Grace Rivers, we are working to establish a network of LTG’s locally to begin with. Starting with individual meetings one on one to impart the vision of a LTG, it is our goal that these twosomes will become a group of three men. The goal will be add a fourth person and divide again into two groups of two. The strength of a LTG lies with a commitment to a specific LTG Bible reading plan and the goal of reaching others who desire the same community and personal growth. This is an inward, as well as an outward plan of personal discipleship.
