GROWING
We are convinced that life change happens best in smaller groups, where people can experience and process life together in community with others. To us, groups are not merely a program or an event. They are about incorporating discipleship into the flow of our everyday lives by sharing life with others. It is where the thoughts, concepts and ideas taught in the large environments like Sunday morning worship gatherings take on flesh and blood and are applied in our daily lives. It is a vehicle for learning, and also to put into practice what we learn by being in community with others.
Connect Groups
Meet new friends in a low-commitment environment. Connect groups meet on a less frequent basis, and anyone is welcome to drop in.
Learning Groups
Join a short-term group focused around a study topic. Most learning groups run for 6-8 weeks and meet at the church building.
Life Groups
Investing in one another over the long-haul of life through deep relationships, Bible study, prayer, and serving together.
Support Groups
These short-term groups are facilitated either by a therapist or lay leader, aimed at tackling struggles with a particular subject (i.e. Grief, Self-Worth, Boundaries, Fear, etc). You will grow and learn from one another’s experiences as well as a curriculum on the particular subject of that group.
We know you have a lot of questions when deciding to take your next step with a group. We have compiled a list of our most frequently asked questions. If you have any others, please fill out our Group Interest Form so we can follow up with you.
We all need community, but it can look differently during various life stages. Your interests, availability, and commitment level all factor into your decision. So we offer a variety of ways to take your next step in following Jesus within community.
Consider how much time you have, and how ready you are to commit. Connect groups are a great next step for those just getting started. Learning groups are a short-term commitment, and go deeper. Life groups are our favorite because this is where you grow the most. See all our open groups here.
Numbers can vary, but they are normally between 8 to 12 people.
They typically meet at a group member’s home, but some meet on the church campus.
Some are set up by topic of interest, but most of them are divided by stage of life. See our open groups here.
Each group is autonomous to decide how they will arrange childcare. If your family or your group needs it, the church offers reimbursement of childcare costs for use during your Group meeting. You can submit a request by completing the Childcare Reimbursement Form.
