You may have seen a Circle without even realizing it. It might look like friends grabbing lunch, a group shooting hoops, or people diving into a good book together. At its core, a Circle is a small group of people gathering with purpose—not just to do something, but to do it together. When you join a Circle, you can expect meaningful connections, life-giving conversations, and a space where prayer and support are just a request away.

Our Circles meet for three semesters a year—winter/spring, summer, and fall. Each semester is about 8-12 weeks long.

During the semester, most groups meet weekly. Circles are meant to bring meaning and community into the flow of your life, so even if you can’t attend every meeting, there is still great value in joining a group.

Most Circles meet for a semester. This way, new people can join groups easily and regularly. Also, the semester format allows you to try multiple groups each year. As relationships form, some groups choose to stay together for consecutive semesters, but new members are always welcome.

Childcare varies from group to group. When you search our directory for a group, the group profile will indicate if childcare is available.

The truth is, finding the right group might take a little time—and that’s okay. That’s why we encourage you to explore a few Circles that catch your interest, reach out to the leaders, and try a couple before deciding which one feels like the best fit. The key to finding your place is simple: don’t give up. We truly believe there’s a Circle for everyone—including you.
