"Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing."
​John 15:4-5

We Seek Jesus and Unity Among Believers

Our Abide Bible study groups started in 2017 with two friends praying and seeking Jesus together weekly. Soon after we felt led to start a middle school girls Bible study group in Elkhart Lake, and in Spring of 2018 a group of about seven 8th-graders from EL-G schools met for the first time. Now it's grown to five groups touching nearly 100 people. Our goal is simple - to read God's Word with others in our community and allow it to transform our daily lives. Deep community is formed as we explore Scripture and pray together.

These truly are community groups - it doesn't matter what denomination you claim or if you don't claim one at all. We focus on what we have in common--the Truth of God's Word and our need for our Savior Jesus Christ. Anyone interested in reading the Bible and discovering its truth for today is welcome to join us! You'll find a listing of our current groups below.
