Community Groups
What are Community Groups?
In addition to our mid-week ministries, we know that doing life with the church body is important to feel seen and known.
Short Term Groups
Short-term groups are 4-6 week small groups that meet at homes or at church. These are a great way to try out a small group and meet new people at our church.
Short-Term Groups will run quarterly.
The next groups start April 7th
Community Groups
These groups are weekly, co-ed gatherings of 10–15 people who are eager about knowing Jesus and being known by community!
Spiritual Formation takes place in community and we want to create space for you to become more like Jesus alongside your friends. Each week you’ll eat a meal, share life together, and pray for one another. We can’t wait!
Connect Groups
Connect groups are interest based groups that meet for 4-6 weeks during the summer. These groups are focused around expanding community and connection within our church. These groups are for those who are looking to get connected as well as those who are already connected and wanting to meet new people from our church.
Connect groups run July-August each year.

Become a group leader
Step 1: Learn
Learn about Small Groups and Life Groups and attend a training from our pastoral staff on how to lead and disciple a group.
Step 2: Invite
Ask others to join your group. A personal invite goes so far!
This step is so impactful to others who are also searching for community.
Step 3: Gather
Once you have been trained and invited others to be a part of your group, start gathering in homes or at church one semester at a time!
There will be quarterly leader training sessions and check-ins offered to further support you and your group.
