Life Groups and Discipleship

The best way to meet others, grow spiritually, and experience the best of FBCIT is to attend a Life Group. Our Life Groups meet every week for Bible Study, fellowship, and prayer. No matter your age and whether you are single, engaged, or married, we have a Life Group for you! We call them "Life Groups" because we do life together! In a Life Group you can study God's Word, make friends, and live out faith in an authentic way. Life Groups make it easier for you to find people you connect with, people who share your interests, who can relate to your struggles and who share in your accomplishments; people you can call family. We know that when you get together with people and have fun, you'll begin to grow into a strong community that serves and grows together.

Life Groups

Life Groups are the best way to meet others, grow spiritually, and experience the best of FBCIT. These groups gather weekly for Bible study, fellowship, and prayer, helping you build authentic friendships and live out your faith. No matter your age or stage of life, there’s a group for you!

Each Life Group has its own personality, so we encourage you to visit a few before settling in. Groups engage in weekly study, monthly fellowship, and quarterly mission projects, fostering a strong community that serves and grows together. As you connect, you'll not only deepen your faith but also find opportunities to serve and invite others to experience the same.

On your first Sunday, stop by the Welcome Center and speak with one of our helpful greeters. They will gladly identify a Life Group for you and personally accompany you to the room.

Griefshare

Tuesdays | 6:30PM-8:00PM | Room B-207 | $20

After the funeral, when the cards and flowers stop coming and life seems to move on for everyone else, your grief remains—and it can feel incredibly isolating. Even when friends and family want to help, they don’t always know how.

Our grief support group is here to walk with you through one of life’s most difficult seasons. Whether you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend, you'll find comfort and hope from people who understand. Each session is led by those who have experienced grief themselves and have found healing.

This 13-week group meets weekly, but each session stands alone—so you’re welcome to join at any time. Contact Betsy Kalman with any questions you may have.
