Why Life Groups? At Hope Foursquare Church we have found that friendships, per-

sonal growth and pastoral care are the best developed in the com-

munity of Life Groups. We have FOUR types of groups to consider:

CONNECT, TOPICAL, ACTION, and SUPPORT. Life Groups Meet at a

variety of times and locations throughout the Snohomish area, en-

suring there is a group which fits a variety of interests and sched-

ules. Whatever Life Group you choose, you can be assured it is led

by trained and qualified leaders. Life Groups are design to welcome

new guests.

If you have a passion or idea that might be a good fit in the future,

please talk to a staff member or pastor.

Choose a group that fits you.

“Leaning into Jeremiah & Romans”

For: Women of HOPE

Cost: $15

Starting Date: September 16th

When: Wednesdays @ 7:00pm

Nudges...have you ever gotten that nudge from the Holy Spirit to do

something out of your comfort zone? The Holy Spirit is great about that! Friends and

other women at HOPE also speak truth into our lives and inspire us just when we most

need to hear their counsel. Have you ever wondered why our struggles sometimes get

in the way of living more Christ-like? Me too! This is a nudge toward something, but I

honestly can’t precisely know all the blessing that it might bring. I do know that this

moment, right now, has never been and will never be again and I believe we can sup-

port and uplift ourselves and each other by spending some time together. So, I would

like to invited you to be present, fully present, and take a step to cultivate deeper faith

and friendships with other women at HOPE. This group is all about jettisoning the

things that get in the way of living wholeheartedly for Christ, sharing our stories and

God-given gifts and leaning into the plans that God has for us and our future. Please

join us and of course, please feel free to bring a

friend! Blessings to you and I hope to see you soon.

“Laugh your way to a better marriage”

For: Everyone Cost: Free Starting Date: September 16th When: 7:00pm, Every other Wednesday

Unlocking the secrets to life, love, and marriage through exploring a variety of subjects including the myth of a “soul mate,” the different ways men and women think, the conflicting levels of libido, and the necessity to forgive. Gungor proves that the key to marital bliss is not romance of destiny—IT’S WORK & SKILL. Couples need to work hard at maintaining their relationship and to have the skills to pull it off. The longer spouses wait to learn these skills, the greater their chance of wanting to bail, yet Gungor makes it easy for couples to bring their relationship to the next level.
