Groups

At SOJO Church, we believe life is better in community, and Groups are the best way to connect with others, grow spiritually, and care for one another.

Groups meet weekly throughout the semester, offering various options that fit your schedule. When you sign up, you’ll be contacted by a group leader to help you get plugged into the right group.

Salvation

At SOJO Church, we believe salvation is the greatest decision you will ever make. It’s the beginning of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ that changes your life and leads to eternal joy. Through Jesus’ death and resurrection, we receive forgiveness for our sins and a new life with God.
Salvation is about turning away from a life of sin and receiving God’s grace by putting your faith in Jesus. It’s not about religion or trying to earn your way to God—it’s about His free gift of grace. If you’ve been wondering how to start a relationship with Jesus, watch our video, What is the Gospel and How Do I Become a Christian? and take your first step toward salvation.
