Yes, groups include families, singles, married couples, and children.
Yes, children are welcome at community groups. The church has budgeted to provide childcare.
We believe everyone should give community groups a shot, whether you are brand new or have been part of our church for a long time. Community groups are two-fold: for connection with one another and for care of the body by the leadership of our church. We believe members and newcomers alike benefit from community group participation.
Of course! We simply ask that co-leaders keep the staff informed on group participation.
Community groups meet twice a month and function best when everyone makes it a priority. Some weeks travel or busyness will make it hard to attend but we believe that community is built when there is trust and commitment.
Spiritual Growth
Grace Groups are life-on-life discipleship groups that provide an intentional pathway for spiritual development beyond a typical community group. Although there is a one-year commitment, many groups choose to meet indefinitely to continue walking through life together.
Intentional Community
Participants can share struggles and celebrate victories with those who understand their unique challenges as men or women following Jesus. Meeting in gender-specific groups of 5-6 people creates a safe, vulnerable space for open discussion and mutual encouragement.
Discipleship Model
The small group format and curated curriculum of Grace Groups equips participants to live out the Gospel in daily life, and may encourage some participants to lead their own groups in the future, creating a multiplying effect of disciple-makers within the church.

Grow FAQ
Here are a few questions our Grow team get asked most often.
We highly recommend you join a neighborhood Community Group.
Grace Groups offer just that! They are meant to draw you into life-on-life discipleship and mutually encouraging friendship.
The best way to stay informed about gender-specific events is by subscribing to Westside's weekly newsletter, The Weekly Westsider. To subscribe, simply scroll to the bottom of our website and enter your email under 'Subscribe for Updates.'
We recommend two options:
- Emotionally Healthy Spirituality: we offer it every fall starting in September and it's just a 9-week course that unpacks core Biblical principles that leads to lasting, beneath-the-surface transformation in your relationship with Christ.
- Bible study: we offer two Bible studies each year, starting in September and then again in February on Wednesday mornings and evenings.
