Let's build friendships that point to Jesus

Connect Groups are all about doing life together. One of the greatest privileges we have as the body of Christ is the ability to grow together spiritually, ensouraging each other towards through the highs, lows and plateaus of life.

A faith journey looks different for everyone, and so the way we do community reflects this! Connect Groups meet based on common interests - sometimes that means a particular bible study or resource, and sometimes that means a particular hobby or activity, such as knitting or cycling. 

Connect Groups run in four blocks per year, with breaks over school holidays. Keep an eye on our Events tab for when the next Connect Block kicks off!

Connect Group FAQs

Connect Groups are one the main ways we gather between Sunday. They create a space for people to intentionally share their lives with others, grow spiritually together, and encourage each other through the highs, lows and plateaus of life. Groups meet weekly or fortnightly and each group has a different focus, activity or topic. Connect Groups gather in homes, coffee shops, and other places where people love to connect, including online.

We are so thrilled that you are keen to get connected! Here are the ways you can join a Connect Group:

  • Visit the Connect Counter on any Sunday and talk to our Host Team. They would love to introduce you to a Connect Leader and help you sign up for a Group
  • Follow this link to find a group and RSVP online
  • If you know someone who runs a Connect Group ask to join their group

Our desire for Connect Groups is that they would be a place where deep and genuine relationships are built; this can be intimidating in itself and requires a level of vulnerability to build friendships, but we promise it is worth it! We were not deisgned to go through life alone! God created us for relationship and has given us the church to ensure we can grow and journey life together. 

If you are feeling nervous about joining a Connect Group our Connections Directors would love to walk you through the process and help you get connected. Reach out to them here.

Finding a Connect Group that fits your schedule and where you feel comfortable is important for diving deep into discipleship relationship. That being said, if you’ve joined a Connect Group and aren’t sure if it’s the right fit for you, don’t give up! Keep in mind that there’s no such thing as a perfect Connect Group because there are no perfect people. Remember to have grace and patience during the process. If it’s clear that this group isn’t the best fit for you, though, give another group a try.

Absolutely! If there isn't a group that fits your schedule, it could be a sign to start one of your own? Our Connections Directors would love to support you in doing so.
