SMALL GROUPS
At Arise Church, we believe that life is better together!
You were created by God to be connected. We believe there is power in connecting with others, sharing our stories, and having people to do life with. Here at Arise Church, we do this through Small Groups!
Find a community that will love, encourage, and challenge you to fulfill your God-given potential.
Strengthen your faith. Develop relationships in Christ and more!
Find the group that fits you today! If you need help, please call the office at (808) 959-7765.
Please contact the group leader directly to join their small group.
If you are interested in starting your own small group, we require our leaders to be active members of Arise Church. This includes attending Sunday services regularly, taking our Next Steps and Membership Class, and attending the Small Group Leader's Connect meeting that is scheduled prior to the start of every Small Group semester.
