Sunday Connect Groups
We know that attending a new place can be intimidating, and it is our strong desire to help you form connections and relationships at Hershey Free. Our Sunday Connect Groups are a great place to start. These groups are a great way to get to know a smaller group of people and study God's Word together. They are based on life stages and average 15 to 30 people. The classes meet during the 9 and 10:30 AM services, so it is possible to attend a group and a worship service on Sunday morning.

Our Sunday morning Connect Groups are structured around different life stages. However, you are welcome to attend the group where you feel you fit the best.
