Connect Groups
We believe life happens in the context of relationships. Connect Groups have one simple purpose: to bring people together. God created us to live in community with others, and it is only then that we can experience the full life He intends for us. Experiencing the freedom that God has prepared for us involves living in genuine community with other believers, so we provide Connect Groups to help you do that in a nurturing and fun environment. Whether you are new to the church or someone who has seen C3 grow and flourish through the years, Connect Groups were created with you in mind as we do life together.
Connect Groups meet weekly/bi-weekly for 16-week semesters in the Spring, 12-week semesters in the Fall, and casual hangouts in the Summertime.
Sign-ups for the next semester begin Thursday, September 25.
