How do I Find a Small Group?

You can find a small group by using the small group search feature on this website. A printable, PDF version of the Small Group Directory is also available on the website. Or you can pick up a Small Group Directory in the foyer of the Main Sanctuary at any church service.

What if I Want to Try Several Groups Before I Commit?

We understand that the dynamics of each group varies, so we encourage people to visit different groups until you find one where you connect.

Most of our current small groups are gender specific groups. We do have some Couples groups for married or engaged couples to attend only. Couples groups must be attended with your spouse or engaged partner.

Do I Have to Be a Member of Trinity to Attend a Small Group?

You do not have to be a member of Trinity to attend a group. We encourage you to invite your friends, neighbors, co-workers, and relatives to the group, regardless of whether they attend TCI or not.
