What Can I Expect To Find in a Christ Community Church Group?

... a place to belong, and to experience authentic community with 6-1/files/Images/Adult Ministries/Merge.jpg2 ordinary people a lot like you.

... a safe place to seek God, to ask questions, and to explore the Bible with fellow explorers.

... a place to give and receive support as we grow in our relationships with one another and Christ.

... a place to uncover God's heart for people by serving one another and our community.

How Can I Get Involved In a Christ Community Church Group?

We’ve listed below the various kinds of groups we currently have at Christ Community, along with a brief description of each.   Click on the graphic to the right of each description to see specific groups that are currently meeting.   From there you’ll be able to sign up for a specific group or e-mail the group leader to find out more information.   Click on the leader's name in the left column to send them an e-mail.   Even if it says that a group is "full" we encourage you to e-mail the leader to see if that might be changing shortly, or if the group is open to birthing a new group.  

If you need help at any point along the way in finding or connecting with a group, feel free to contact Dick Dougherty, Group Ministry Coordinator, at 970.405.1120 or dickd@cccgreeley.org

If you're new to Christ Community or are just beginning to explore the idea of connecting with other people in a group setting, we recommend one of the following options ...  

The Alpha Course/files/Images/Adult Ministries/Alpha.jpg 

Alpha is a great way to begin connecting with other people and grow in your relationship with Jesus at Christ Community.   Beginning with a free dinner and childcare each week, you'll explore the teachings of the Christian faith in a relaxed setting over ten thought-provoking weekly sessions, and a weekend away in Estes Park.  Regardless of where you are in your spiritual journey -- from skeptic to long-time Christ-follower -- Alpha is a low-key, friendly and fun place to grow, and is offered three times a year at Christ Community: Fall, Winter and Spring.    Click here to find out more, or to sign-up for the next Alpha Course.  

Dinner For Eight  /files/Images/Adult Ministries/Dinner for Eight.jpg

Dinner for Eight (D48) is a relaxed and non-threatening way to connect with 6-7 other people from Christ Community over dinner once a month for four months.   Click here to find out more, or to sign-up to become involved in Dinner for Eight.
