Small groups of people that meet in homes during the week, are one way that we can facilitate the connecting and strengthening of relationships within our Southlands family. In fact, participation in a  Life Group is the most effective way of being pastorally cared for. We discuss Sundays message and seek practical ways to apply that truth in our lives. We also encourage times of prayer and ministry.

Sunday gatherings, though essential in their own right, do not provide sufficient opportunity to effectively get to know know each other, care for each other, to be equipped or provide missional opportunities (where we impact our world). That is why we highly recommend involvement in a Life Group. Just as the early church met in the temple courts and from house to house, so we try to model that through our Sunday Gathering and commitment to a Life Group.

The Gospel is experienced through faith, lived out by devotion and motivated by a genuine concern for the physical, mental and spiritual state of our fellow human beings, wherever they may live. Life Groups enable us to creatively and productively thrive as we commit ourselves to both fellowship and partnership.

Our Life Groups meet for 10 consecutive weeks and then break for 2-3 weeks. During this break you have the opportunity to sign up with a new Life Group or stay with your original one.
