We build community through small groups. Through a variety of options offered each semester, small groups are the best way to build authentic friendships that are centered in Christ.
Our small groups have different styles and content:
Bible Studies
Book Studies
Prayer Groups
Support Groups
Social Groups
Men’s Groups
Women’s Groups
Family Groups
Although each group has their own style, they all share these 4 things in common:
Community: casual time for members to visit with each other
Purpose: intentional content to grow in faith
Scripture: some type of connection to the Word of God
Prayer: some form of prayer during each session
Our groups follow a semester-based model. They typically meet once a week for 5-8 weeks during one of our semesters. Each semester is followed by a break, which provides a natural opportunity for each member to consider a different group for the following semester. Certainly, groups can stay together for future semesters, but this model allows for each person to reassess their spiritual needs three times a year. This also allows for new people to step into leadership each semester and for veteran leaders to take a break for a semester if they need.
Here is our semester schedule:
Lent
Summer
Advent & Christmas
