Small Group Life

Christians are called to love our neighbors as we love ourselves. In order to love others in a deep and meaningful way, we need to be in meaningful relationships with them. Here at Montrose Zion, we encourage our members to belong to a small group of Christians who meet weekly to encourage each other, pray for each other, strengthen each other, and study God’s Word together. This allows for deep friendships and relationships to take place with other Christians. Please take a minute to read about some of the small group opportunities offered at Montrose Zion and find one which appeals to you!
