Home Groups


Home Groups gives you a place to go mid-week where you get to dig a little deeper into the topic from the Sunday before with other folks in a little smaller setting.  You'll make friends and find social connections as home church groups do service projects and outings together.  You'll learn how to pray and worship more often through the week.  And you'll get the most up-to-the-minute news and information about what's going on next at River City.

If you want your give your spiritual growth a huge boost, if you need something more than Sunday mornings and you're ready to learn some more, this is the perfect opportunity.

Come weekly or twice each month.  Check out the different locations and see which home group fits you best.  But most important - you should go!

What are Home Groups About?

  • A place to grow spiritually and connect with God.
  • A place to connect with others that attend River City Church and form relationships.
  • A place to connect to care for others and receive care.

These connections strengthen your daily life and make this church feel like home!

What Happens at Home Groups?
Groups spend about 2 hours together and focus on know-ing each other and learning about a spiritual topic related to the bible. A typical evening has these components:
  • Coffee & Group check in - how are things going (15-30 minutes)
  • Group Discussion time - (1 hour)
  • Prayer for one another - For personal challenges, physical illness including yourself, for you family and friends (15-30 minutes)
