Life in Community

The best parts of life are alongside others in community.  We weren't created to operate in isolation, but rather we were made to do life side-by-side and arm-in-arm. 

If you are looking to grow deeper in community and in your faith walk, get connected to a community group. Many of our community groups are designed to connect you with others in similar stages of life. They meet in people's homes all over the Grand Rapids area at different times and different days. Other groups are more topical in nature and focus more on a specific need or curriculum.

No matter what your weekly schedule looks like, and what stage of life you are in, we can help you find the perfect small group that will meet your needs. 

 
 

Join a group

Community groups are the best place to enter into deeper community, be challenged in your faith, and take part in outreach in your given context. Chances are, there's one already happening near you! 

We have groups that meet all throughout the week with many different topics- and we would love to have you join us in one (or more) of them!

  • Women’s Group - Two separate groups for our women at The Story. One meets Monday evenings at 6:30pm at The Story and the other meets Mondays at Sarah VM house at 6:30pm. Join the women of the Story as we enjoy some time together while we study together!

  • Sunday Evening Group - meets Sunday evenings at 6:30 pm at The Story.

  • Wednesday Evening Group - meets Wednesday evenings at 6:30 pm at The Story.

  • Thursday Ladies Group - meets Thursday afternoon off site.

  • Couples Group - meets Thursday evenings at 6:30 pm at The Story. Whether married or dating, join us as we discuss and grow together in our faith.

  • Food and Fellowship Group - meets the first and third Mondays of the month at Mr Burger on Alpine (starting Sept. 15th). Grab a burger and then join us to discuss and grow in faith together

  • Other groups developing- There are some more groups that haven’t landed on a time or date, but rather are trying to accommodate people who want to join a group but don’t see an option yet.
