COMMUNITY GROUPS
Community Groups are an essential part of CalvarySLO as they provide a place where deeper fellowship and better support for one another can take place. Considering that the early church worshipped in large settings in the synagogues as well as in homes, we unite together similarly in order to be in deeper fellowship with God and one-another. God has reconciled us not only to Himself but also to each other. This "each other" is called His Church. Thus, we intentionally strive toward community through men's/women's groups, home gatherings, or any other personal setting.
We strongly encourage you to get involved in a Community Group. Check out the groups listed below, fill out the interest form, or contact Greg Squires about leading one yourself. We provide regular trainings in order to help equip you to lead well.
