Life Group Leader Application

Life Groups are an integral part of what we do as a church. We believe that spiritual growth occurs in the context of a small group while doing life together. Want to become a Life Group Leader at ONE*? Here's how:

Step 1.Fill out the application below. If you are planning to lead a married group we ask that each spouse fill out their own application.
(You must have attended ONE* for 6 months or more, a Christ follower for 2 years or more and have completed Membership.)

Step 2. We'll contact you to setup an interview.

Since our Life Group leaders play such an important role, we take great care when enlisting them. Submitting an application doesn't necessarily guarantee we'll have a group for you to lead at this time.
