“You belong here, with as much right to the name Christian as anyone. God is building a home. He’s using us all—irrespective of how we got here—in what he is building. He used the apostles and prophets for the foundation. Now he’s using you, fitting you in brick by brick, stone by stone, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone that holds all the parts together. We see it taking shape day after day—a holy temple built by God, all of us built into it, a temple in which God is quite at home.
Ephesians 2:20-22 (MSG)
Through Jesus, God made us to belong together.
Although we gather weekly in larger groups, life groups are the heartbeat of our community. In life groups we celebrate, grieve, support, encourage, pray, study, grow, and serve alongside each other, and God’s love shines through our unity. We want every person in our community to join a life group! Below is a list of groups that currently meet, along with contact information for group leaders. If a group looks interesting to you, email the leader and we’ll get you connected to the one that’s right for you! And if you’re interested in starting a group, you can fill out this form to the to begin the process of creating a new group!

C2 Church is excited to launch our new “C2 Adopt-A-College-Student” program! Our vision is to provide college students with the family support and connection they need during their time at school. This program offers a “home away from home” for students, with opportunitie for home-cooked meals, Godly advice, family atmosphere, and even practical help like laundry access. Adopting a college student (or two…maybe even three) is a blessing not just for the student, but also for you!
