Join a Group
Fall Small Groups begin in September. Check out the list of groups and gatherings below and sign up using the information request at the bottom of the page. This is a great time to get connected!
Small groups are one important way to grow deeper in relationships with God and with one another. We learn to know Christ more and how to follow him in word and deed in the context of community.
Joining a small group is such a vital and easy way to get to know others in the church, establish friendships and grow in Christ in a more relaxed setting. Check out the groups — one of them might be a perfect fit for you!
- Look over the list below
- Fill out the information request form at the bottom of the page
- Have fun, make friends, and grow in faith!
scheduling system
Our small groups operate on a trimester system of meeting for three months and then taking a break for a month allowing everyone to recharge.
If you want to join a group but don’t want to get stuck in a group forever, this allows everyone the chance to join a church group for a season and then re-evaluate.
Group break months are: April, August, & December

New Group for Women
Tuesday evenings, 6:30-8:30PM
Vaun Swanson’s home in Old Littleton
Are you longing for some deeper conversation around how your life circumstances intersect with God’s purposes? This group will use Henri Nouwen’s book “Can you Drink the Cup” to facilitate our conversation. This was the question Jesus asked his friends James and John shortly before his death and Nouwen reflects upon the metaphor of the cup, using the images of holding, lifting and drinking to illustrate the basics of the spiritual life. What might God be teaching us through the joys and sufferings of our lives right now?
Let Vaun know if you’re interested in joining the group and she will order a book for you. We’ll read a chapter a week for 12 weeks or so…..and enjoy fellowship with old and new friends along the way! We’ll begin on Tuesday, September 7th. RSVP to Vaunswanson@msn.com or fill out the form at the bottom of the webpage.
