Making friends and finding community is one of the biggest concerns new college students have going into their first year. Here at Grace, we work to make that transition easier through programs that connect you with your fellow students. One of these programs is growth groups. Growth groups are held weekly on Wednesday nights with the members of your hall, and are led by upperclassman growth group leaders, or GGLs. Growth groups are required for first-year students, but all students are welcome and encouraged to attend! In growth groups, students study the Bible based on the chapel theme for the year, connect with their hallmates, and participate in lots of fun events and activities.
