Rooted is a 10-week small group experience we recommend as the first step for most people at WACC. The 10-week curriculum was built around daily readings and weekly experiences that deepen your understanding of following Jesus. The relationships participants build in these weeks are often so strong that groups decide to continue meeting as a Community Group after Rooted has ended. We offer Rooted twice a year. If you want to join Rooted, we open registrations in August and January. If you have questions about Rooted, don't hesitate to contact Chris Cox at chris@wacc.net.
Alpha is a small group experience for spiritual seekers, people with questions, or those from other faith backgrounds. Each week participants will eat dinner together and watch a short film exploring a different faith question. The short films were designed to create a judgment-free environment for anyone curious about life, faith, or meaning that can come as they are. Alpha registration opens in August and January. If you have questions about Alpha, don't hesitate to contact Ginnie Eller at geller@wacc.net.
Community groups meet weekly continuously during different seasons of the year. They are sermon-based, which means the group time is spent discussing questions based on the previous Sunday’s sermon. Participants generally stay with the same group for an extended period and focus on connecting relationally, engaging scripture, praying, and serving together. You may search for a group on the Group Finder to find a community group.
Bible studies meet weekly continuously during different seasons of the year to invest time in learning scripture. Participants spend time completing their studies during the week and meet as a group to discuss what they learned. Studies are often a deep dive into a specific book of the Bible or a book that aids in applying the Bible to your life. Bible study registration opens in the Fall, but you may join anytime. If you have questions about Bible study, don't hesitate to contact Ginnie Eller at geller@wacc.net.
Adult Sunday school classes are committed to fellowship and learning over the long haul. Many of these classes have been together for 20+ years, and they meet on Sundays each week for prayer, worship, teaching, and fellowship. If you would like to join an adult Sunday school class, you may search for a group on the Group Finder.

If our page does not have Rooted or Alpha registrations on the page, that means that the groups already started meeting. We would encourage you to sign up for the following season and get connected once registration is open. Registration will open around the Fall and Winter promo season. Open registrations will be announced in the main services.
Sometimes emails are missed, or you won’t hear back immediately. We recommend that you follow up with the leader again. If you do not hear back, please contact us so we can help you get connected to a group.
