Community Group FAQs

What is a Community Group?

Community Groups are generally short-term groups that meet for up to 12 weeks to engage in a shared activity or interest.

What are the goals of a community group?

Community Groups are one of the best ways to get started in connecting with other people at St. Paul. We have four goals for these groups:

Equip you to know Christ more fully
Create opportunities for meaningful relationships
Serve one another and the community
Promote overall well-being, body, mind, and spirit

Who can join a Community Group?

These groups are open to anyone regardless of where you go to church or even if you go to church. Please invite your friends!

I don’t see something I’m interested in, how can I get involved in starting a new group?

We want you to lead a group! Contact Lexie Brown for more information.

When do groups launch?
