Connect groups

Every Journey begins with a step ...

If you’re looking to take a step toward belonging, Connect Groups are a great way to go.

These groups create space for you to spend time with others over a shared interest or activity. They’re an easy way to get to know folks from your Woodmen campus in a relaxed, fun setting. Most groups last just a few weeks and there’s no commitment required. Groups meet out in the community. Depending on the focus of the group you might come together in a home, or at a coffee shop, trailhead or park.

God designed us to thrive in relationship with one another, and we want to foster encouraging community. So every Connect Group has one simple goal—to help you find your people and take a step toward connection. 

Check out the list of groups at each campus to get started today! New groups kick off four times a year - Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring. So, if you don't see the group you're looking for, reach out to us or check back here soon.
