Small Groups FAQ (Click on a question to see the answer!)
- What are Small Groups?
- Small groups of people meeting together to build relationships and to grow with one another.
- Who can join a Small Group?
- Anyone can join a Small Group. You don't have to be a member of theChurch to participate in our Small Groups, but coming to our services is the best way to experience what we're all about. Visitors are encouraged to join Small Groups at any time unless otherwise specified. For example, some Bible studies, training classes or activities are progressive and would require full attendance.
- Are all Small Groups the same?
- No, we have a large variety of groups that offer just about anything that you can imagine.
- Why should I join a Small Group?
- SmallGroups are the best way to get connected with other people at theChurch. In a small group, it is easier to meet people and to find a place where you can fit in.
- How do I choose a Small Group?
- You can read about Small Groups on the church website or get a list from the cart in the lobby.
- When and where do Small Groups meet?
- We try to make our Small Groups fit your lifestyle, so they meet at various times and locations. Most groups are about 1 hour and 30 minutes in length, depending on the group. Contact your Small Group Leader for time and location information.
- Can I change Small Groups?
- If you haven't found what you're looking for, we have plenty of groups to choose from. If you want to try a new group, wait until the entry point for the next term. Small Groups run in three terms: Spring, Summer, and Fall.
- Can I continue in my Small Group for more than one term?
- If the Small Group is running for another term, you can definitely rejoin the same group.
- Can I join more than one Small Group?
- Yes, but we believe you will have the best experience if you are committed to just one or two.
- Is childcare provided?
- The church does provide childcare for some Small Groups. For the care and safety of our children, all childcare givers are screened and trained workers. Contact the Leader of the group for more information.
- What if I want to start a Small Group?
- Great! We're always looking for new and fresh ideas. Go through our Growth Track, and attend our next Small Group Leader Training. Once your Small Group has been approved by church leadership, you can start building your group. From time to time we will have a Small Group Rally Day for people to visit after a church service.
