Journey Groups

Journey Groups (Community Groups)

Community matters. Our small groups are how we ensure people are cared for and connected in meaningful community. Each small group leader can host a group based on their passions, interests or hobbies. For us, it’s less about what people do when they meet and more about everyone connecting to a larger story through genuine relationships within the local church. Visit our NextSteps area to learn more about leading or joining a Journey Group.

Saturdays 8:30-TBD (twice a month)

Co-Ed

Ages 18+

This semester, we’ll enjoy at least two hikes each month, beginning with our first on February 14. Occasionally we will go to breakfast after a hike. We’re also looking for a co-leader to help plan one of the monthly hikes. Our group will take time to enjoy God’s creation and share moments of prayer, care, and encouragement together.

Children are welcome (parent's must use their discretion based on the location/terrain of the hike).

Mondays 6:30-8:00 PM

Women

Ages 25+

Do you know how to knit? Are you interested in learning how? Have no fear; Knit Happens is here! This group is for anyone 25+ who wants to knit (no experience needed) and pray for each other through the good, the bad, and the ugly. If you have a kiddo interested in learning how to knit, no worries! They can come along and learn. Don’t forget to bring needles and yarn for your projects! If you are a knitting newbie, I can help you pick out what will be needed to get started.

Thursdays 6:30-8:00 PM

Single Parents

Ages 21+

This group is a welcoming space for single parents raising kids of all ages, from little ones to teens. We’ll share real-life struggles and victories, talk about the ups and downs of parenting solo, and discover how God’s love and His Word bring hope and encouragement into it all. Come as you are, find support and friendship, and know you’re not walking this road alone. We’ll meet outdoors—so please bring a camping chair if you’d prefer not to sit at a picnic table.

Leader: TBD

Wednesdays 6:30-8:00 PM

Co-Ed

Ages 18+

The Broom Tree is a journey group inspired by 1 Kings 19 when Elijah was weary, overwhelmed, and ready to give up—and God’s response was: eat, rest, and then keep going. We gather to do much the same. This is a place to slow down, connect with one another, recharge, and occasionally break bread together. We’re laid back, real, and imperfect people who believe faith is sometimes about sitting down under the broom tree and letting God restore us. Some weeks are light and encouraging, other weeks go a little deeper, but the goal is always the same: building relationships with one another and Christ.

Fridays 7:00-8:30 PM

Singles, Co-Ed with Kids

Ages 18+

As Ephesians 6:12-13 says, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand." As warriors for God, we must be prepared. The Attacks are coming. The fight is here. It is time to prepare.

Young Married/Young Engaged (but not living together)

Ages 18 - 32

If you are looking for community with other young marrieds who are looking to live out a Biblically based marriage and would like to be poured into by a couple who is more seasoned in their marriage, then come check out our journey group. This semester we are finishing "Love and Respect" for the first few weeks, and then we will pivot to study Biblical principals to equip couples to have a Christ centric marriage.
