The Vine

Graft Groups

At the heart of The Vine are our many home groups that meet throughout North Hamilton. Our home groups are called Graft Groups – we desire to be ‘grafted’ (connected) to each other and to Jesus, because without Him we can’t reach our full potential in this life . . . and don't have any hope for eternal life after death.

See the bottom of the page for a list of all current Graft Groups running and contact details. Everyone is welcome, so email us to get involved: graftgroups@vine.org.nz

As a Christian organisation operating in Rototuna, Hamilton, The Vine wants to help people Make the Connection Jesus, who once said:

“I am the Vine, you are the branches. When you're joined with me - and I with you - the relationship intimate and organic, the harvest is sure to be abundant.

“Separated, you can’t produce a thing.”

(Message Bible, John 15:5)

Graft Groups are a safe, fun way to learn about Jesus and the Bible, ask questions, test your beliefs and enjoy stimulating discussions about the things that matter most in your life.

The Vine Graft Groups are also an excellent way to build relationships with your Rototuna neighbours.
