People Groups are one of the primary ways in which we build community here at Edge via the sacraments of prayer, teaching, sharing a common meal and fellowship.

We value authenticity in our relationships, but relationships need a context to grow and develop and People Groups are a proven environment where this can happen for you.  We have an amazing group of leaders at Edge with a genuine passion to see people connected and sharing a journey of faith and life together.  Therefore we encourage everyone who calls Edge home to get involved in People Groups.  Below is a the list of groups on offer.  They meet on a fortnightly basis unless otherwise mentioned.
