CG — Moore's Mill West Paces

Welcome to our CG! Our group represents almost every age/stage of life.  The diversity of life stages is quite the blessing to all of us.  We kick-off each meeting with a themed potluck dinner (we have fun with the themes!), then we spend an hour reviewing the sermon and going over prayer requests.  Kids are welcome.  After dinner, they typically relax as a group while watching a movie/TV show.  (We do not have a babysitter.)  In addition, we try to find other times to get together.  This year we are ending summer with a pool party.  We also love to celebrate babies, moves, etc, and find any reason to gather, eat, and visit. Atlanta Westside Community Groups are a safe space for you to discuss each week’s sermon, build relationships with other members of the church, and explore how your faith intersects with your local community.

We are the Wildwood CG and we live up to our name! We typically meet every-other-week at someone's house. We fellowship over yummy food, let the kids play, and find some time to dig into that week's sermon. We shoot for consistent attendance, we aim to bear each other's burdens, and actively pray for needs. We'd love for you to join this "wild" CG!

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our church services, beliefs, and membership.

What does it mean to be a member, and how can I join?

Formal church membership makes your relationship to a local body explicit, including commitments that you make to the church, and commitments that church leaders make to you. To read a fuller argument for membership, check out this article written by our senior pastor. Members don’t have to agree with every doctrinal position of our church. You just have to believe some basic truths of the Christian faith and agree to some basic commitments about being a member.

The first step toward becoming a member is attending the class Westside 101. Check out our events calendar for the next class offering. You'll learn of next steps toward becoming a member during that time. The class does not commit you to membership.

Is there someone I can reach out to help me figure out good ways to get connected?

Absolutely! If you're interested in Sunday serving opportunities, email Wyatt Brown. If you'd like to hear more about discipleship opportunities, reach out to Rachel Zietlow.

Do you have a Meals Ministry?

Westside's Meals Ministry is a great way to serve behind the scenes. Our Meals Ministry Team is dedicated to providing care and support to those in our community who need it most.

Whether it's welcoming a new baby, helping during an illness, or offering comfort during a difficult time, we assist with meals to bring a bit of relief and love. Serving behind the scenes in this way is a simple yet powerful way to show Christ's love to others. For more information, whether you're interested in serving, need meals or know someone who could use some help, please please reach out to Valerie Palmer and she will help get you connected.

What should I do if I need pastoral help or guidance?

If you’re looking for pastoral support or guidance, you can email Josh Kim, the Assistant Pastor and Director of Pastoral Care.

What should I do if I’m having a hard time connecting with others at church?

If you’re finding it tough to connect, joining a community group could be a great next step. Our groups are based on where you live, so you can easily connect with others in your neighborhood. These groups are all about doing life together, studying the Word, and supporting each other. We’d love to help you find a group that fits.

Also, check out our upcoming events—these are great opportunities to meet people and get involved.

Could you explain what your church believes and practices regarding baptism?

We believe baptism is God's sign that a person is included among the people of God. For more on baptism, check out this Baptism FAQ blog post, written by Walter Henegar.
