In our hurried and fragmented world of iPods, cell phones, laptops and other technologies that tend to shut us off from personal interaction, we long for fellowship—the kind of fellowship Christ desires for his followers. The Bible tells us that if we want to have a close relationship with God, we will also have close relationships with other Christians. (I John 1:7) We believe being a part of “Community Life” at WCC will help create those close relationships.


In community you will:

We believe it is important for everyone to find a place to connect relationally and grow spiritually. Here are some ways you can move in that direction:

In-home Small Groups
A group of 6-14 people who meet together regularly in someone’s home for fellowship, Bible study and prayer. Lifelong and eternal friendships can be built in these settings.

The best way to get connected to an in-home small group is by attending “Discovering Community”. Learn more about it by clicking the following link: [Discovering Community]

Life Groups
A group of 2-4 men or women who meet on a regular basis for encouragement, support, and spiritual growth. These meetings usually take place in a variety of environments such as restaurants, coffee shops or the work place.

Connection Points
Connection Points are a great way to have fun and make new friends. These groups are centered around favorite activities such as stamping, trail riding, swing dancing, euchre, open gym, and events like Dinner for Eight. They provide an excellent opportunity to rub shoulders with people from WCC as well as others from our local community. Connection Points are ongoing throughout the year. Watch for announcements in the weekly program or learn more about it by clicking the following link: [Connection Points]

Bible Studies
Even though Bible studies such as Beth Moore or the Discovery Series are under the umbrella of the Women’s and Adult Ministries, they provide an excellent opportunity to get connected here at WCC. There are also smaller, informal studies available.

Prayer Groups
Prayer groups are committed to meet regularly for the sole purpose of praying for the people and ministries of WCC. Prayer groups may be only 2-3 people or a
large group.

Support Groups
Support Groups are available under the ministry and direction of WCC’s Counseling Center. For details, please contact Heidi Christner at 268-0448 x130.

Serving at WCC
Using your giftedness to serve at WCC is another way to get connected. Currently there are over 500 volunteers who serve in some capacity at WCC.

If you have a question or would be interested in any of these groups, please contact Courtney Flinn at 268-0188 x126.
