Grace Groups

“I am only going to be here for 3 years.”
“I already have a couple friends.”
“I don’t have the time.”
“What if the group is weird?”

 

     We get it—there are plenty of reasons to hesitate when it comes to joining a small group. But the truth is, there are even more reasons to take the leap.
     At Grace, we believe that church isn’t just about rows of pews—it’s about circles of people. Grace Groups are our primary way of helping people move from simply attending to truly belonging. Sunday mornings are powerful, but they can also be big and a bit impersonal. Grace Groups create space for connection—where you can be known, encouraged, challenged, and cared for.

We were created for community. We need each other.

     Grace Groups are intentionally sized to feel natural—not too big and not too small. Each year we launch new groups where people learn, grow, and do life together. Right now, around 50 groups are meeting in and around Ann Arbor, mostly organized by life stage. Groups meet every other week and follow one of several curriculum options, with plenty of space for real conversation and friendship.
     If you're ready to take a step toward community, we’d love to help. Contact Mary-Lynn Hodges at , and she’ll send you a quick form to get started. Once that’s submitted, we’ll help connect you with a group that’s a great fit.

Healthy, godly relationships have the power to change your life. We hope you’ll take that next step and join a Grace Group!
