Connect

One of the values we hold as a church is the value of community–that is, people coming together around a common purpose. Life wasn't meant to be lived alone. When God made people he designed us for togetherness–both with HIm and with each other.

We're a large church. Several thousand people attend here so it's important to be connected. Life isn't a spectator sport. And you'll find the same is true of church life at Ward. We offer powerful ways to grow but you can't experience most of them by going it alone.

We invite you to dive into group life. Connect with others through small and medium size gatherings that take place here on the Ward campus and in homes across the community each week. There's truly something for everyone from singles and empty-nesters to kids and teens. Ward's groups provide a framework for connection. They keep us focused on the purpose of the church–helping us grow in our love for each other as we grow in our love for God.

Life is a journey. The people in your group are traveling companions. Group life takes a big church like Ward and breaks it down to a level that's personal, relational and life changing. Take a look around, then use links in this section to make contact and join a group that fits your interests and schedule. Once you've experienced group life, you'll wonder how you ever managed doing life alone!
