Connect at AGF
AGF’s Mini Church groups are created around common interests to help make it easier for members to build relationships, and to help facilitate personal ministry within the church. Some groups are formed around common interests, such as sports or hobbies, while others are formed around lifestyles, such as age groups or parenthood.
We also have groups dedicated to Bible studies and fellowship, so you can discuss and grow your personal ministry in a smaller group setting while building relationships with other members of the community.
Find a group that fits you!
