Following Jesus Together.
We desire to cultivate community at Citizens. But, you can find friendships at your local gym, neighborhood association, or pub. We want to see communities of disciples transformed by Jesus. Disciple simply means a follower. All of us are being formed by something and our communities want to be formed into the image of Jesus by following his ways together.
You were not made to live life on your own, nor is the invitation to “find community”. Jesus calls all of us to cultivate an intentionally intrusive, Jesus-centered, grace-filled community who laughs together, cries together, prays together, and is striving to practice the way of Jesus together.
Community Rhythms
Our groups are formed around geography to facilitate consistent interaction throughout the week. Each group organizes its shared life around four essential practices.
Studying the Scriptures
Discussing and applying God’s Word into our lives.
Care and Prayer
Confessing sin and praying for those in need.
Family Hangouts
Gathering to eat, talk, laugh, and play.
Missional Hospitality
Practicing making room for outsiders and serve our neighbors.

How do I join a Community Group?
Personal Invitation
If you know someone in a community group, ask that person about visiting their group. You’ll already know someone when you join the group for the first time!
Connect Card
If you need some help getting connected to a group, stop by the connect area in the lobby on a Sunday. There, one of our volunteers can help you fill out a connect card and get connected to a group!
