Interested in Joining a Small Group?
New Small Groups
Not in a small group? Jump into a group for this church-wide study that will follow our Sunday sermon series, Challenge Accepted, where we’ll confront what’s hard—and grow through it. We’ll connect with others in the same stage of life, unpack the previous Sunday’s message, and grow in relationship with Jesus and others. Are you up for the challenge?
TUESDAYS, JAN 20-FEB 17: 6:30-8PM
Childcare is available. Look for childcare registration upon registering for the group.
Community Groups
Community Groups bring people together as they journey through similar stages of life or connect through like interests. Through our Community Groups, you’ll have the opportunity to connect relationally and grow spiritually as you experience life in community.
WOMEN’S group
We weren’t meant to follow Jesus alone. Women especially flourish when we grow together, encourage one another, and sharpen one another. We'll gather together on Tuesday evenings as one large group before moving into smaller table communities for meaningful discussion, prayer, and learning. (Tuesdays, Jan 20-March 3, 6:30-8pm)
MEN’S group
Following Jesus was never meant to be done alone, but for men there can be a natural habit of going at it alone. We want to change that! Through building connection with other guys, studying Scripture, having meaningful conversations, and throwing in some laughter, we can journey together toward Jesus. Join us on Thursdays from 6:30-8pm, starting January 22, in the Lobby Lounge. It’s an open group—no registration needed, and you can join in at any time.
MOM’S group
Join other moms for connection, prayer, inspring messages, meaningful conversations, and fun activities. This season we’re exploring how to trade control for the truth and peace of God. Come laugh, learn, and grow in faith—together. (We’ll begin meeting again on Tuesday mornings in January. Check back for registration.)

Do you like to get out and hit the trail? We are blessed to have some of the world’s best scenery and hiking trails in the High Sierra practically in our backyard. Join the Hiking Group and keep up to date on our upcoming hikes. We try to schedule a quarterly day hike, generally in the 10 – 15 mile range with some of the usual elevation ups and down. Join the group to be notified about upcoming hikes.
Groups for Students and Kids
Every third Thursday of the month, 4th and 5th graders gather for an evening packed with fun games, activities, and yummy food! Kids will build friendships, connect with leaders, and dive into relevant conversations about life and faith that will encourage them to live boldly as followers of Jesus. It’s the perfect place to invite friends from school, sports, or the neighborhood to join in on the fun!

wednesdays, 6:30-8pm
Students, 6th-12th grade, are invited to join us on Wednesday nights to meet in a small group, grow in faith, build real friendships, and connect with trusted adult leaders who care.
Each month will feature a rhythm of high-energy worship nights, engaging Bible-centered discussions, fun themed hangouts, and intentional space to go deeper in community. Whether your student is new or has been around for years, this is the place to belong and grow.
