Reaching IN to our fellow Members
Royal Lane has a deep commitment to bolstering the fellowship we have between the membership of our congregation. To adequately find time for each member of Royal Lane to “get to know” each other, which is not always possible during regularly scheduled events at the church, we have developed a series of Care Groups that meet periodically, allowing a valuable time of social interaction.
Please contact Wayne Meachum for questions regarding Care Groups or call the church office to request her phone number.
