Welcome to Groups at Columbia

At Columbia, we help you grow in your faith as a Whole Life Disciple, integrating Christ’s character and love into every part of life. We like to say that your relationship with Christ affects who you are, what you do everyday, wherever you are. Through groups, you can find the community we believe is essential to encourage your faith, navigate life’s ups and downs, and equip you to live like Jesus.

All about

groups

As Christ-followers, we’re called to be together, supporting one another as we seek to become more like Jesus. Our Groups ministry is designed for adults 23 and older who are looking to grow spiritually, deepen their connection with others, and discover their spot in the church’s mission.

Joining a group means you’ll:

  • Discover ways to integrate your beliefs into all aspects of your life.
  • Build authentic relationships with people who care about you and your spiritual journey.

“Groups helped me find not just a church, but a family.”

Why Join?

In a world where it’s easy to feel isolated, Columbia’s Groups offer a space to find genuine friendship, encouragement, and faith-filled conversation. We’re not meant to navigate life or our spiritual journey alone, and by joining a group, you’ll experience a deeper connection to both God and the broader church family.

This ministry is special because it’s more than just a small group. It’s a place where disciples are made—people who are passionate about following Jesus and helping others do the same. As you grow in faith, you’ll be equipped to make a lasting impact on the world around you.
