Community

Missional Communities

The main artery supplying the heartbeat of our church. These are smaller groups within our family — adults, youth, and children — that gather weekly in various neighborhoods to live out life in faith together.

Life Together

We eat together, play together, and serve together

We talk about the story of Jesus together. These are open communities, always welcoming new people to come along — you do not need to be a member, a regular, or even sure what you believe.

These are multiplying communities, with the long-term goal to birth new communities once a group reaches a certain size. Growth is not a problem to manage; it is the point.

Find a group near you

  • Common meals

    Food first. Some of the best conversation happens with a plate in hand.

  • The week's teaching

    Discussing and reflecting on the Scripture we heard on Sunday.

  • Shared experiences

    Real friendship — the kind that shows up on a Tuesday, not just a Sunday.

  • Serving together

    Moving into the neighborhood together, not just meeting inside it.

Getting Started

How to join a community

  1. Come to a Sunday gathering first

    It helps to know the family you are joining. Sundays at 9:30 AM at The Dance Foundation.

  2. Tell us where you live

    Email Todd or use the contact page and we will point you to the closest group.

  3. Just show up

    Groups are open. There is no interview, no curriculum to read beforehand, and no expectation that you bring anything but yourself.

Ask About a Group

You do not have to do this alone.

Missional community is where the Sunday teaching becomes Monday life. Let us help you find your people.
