Grow Groups are small, weekly gatherings where people come together in homes or on campus at WACC to build meaningful relationships and grow in their faith. In a safe and supportive environment, you can share openly, be encouraged, and experience real transformation in Christ. Each group centers on four key practices: connection, Scripture, prayer, and serving. Ready to take the next step? Watch the video to learn how to get connected.

Adult Sunday Groups 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 Group, you may search for a group on the Group Finder.
Bible studies meet weekly during fall, winter, and spring. 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 begins in the fall, but you may join anytime. You may search for a Bible Study on the Group Finder below.
Community Groups are sermon-based small groups that meet weekly in homes and various locations during fall, winter, and spring. Group time is spent discussing questions based on the previous Sunday’s sermon. Participants generally stay with the same group for an extended period of time. You may search for Community Groups on the Group Finder below to join anytime.
Money Makeover is a nine-week class that teaches biblical principles for managing your finances—paying off debt, building savings, and living with generosity.

MomCo is for everyone in their mothering journey, starting with Expecting Moms through moms of High Schoolers. MomCo is here to come alongside you and rally with you through motherhood's many changing and challenging seasons. We might be in the throes of diaper changes and sleepless nights, or we may be in the season where we are handling more emotional needs than physical ones. We believe that remarkable things happen when moms come together, face to face, and walk out of this thing called motherhood! We want you to feel safe, seen, heard & loved in this community, through the many facets and experiences of being a mom. If you would like to register, please visit our Women’s Ministrywebpage.

Rooted is a 10-week small group experience that we recommend as the first step for most people at WACC. The 10-week curriculum is built around daily readings and weekly experiences that deepen a person’s understanding of following Jesus. The relationships that participants build in these 1o weeks often last long after Rooted has ended. We offer Rooted twice a year, and registration is open in August and January. When registration is open, it will appear at the top of this webpage.
Support Groups meet every Monday evening at 6:30 pm in the Chapel on WACC’s campus to provide care for individuals seeking support for: Substance abuse, sexual addiction, divorce, trauma, mental-health-related struggles, grief, etc. Please visit our Support Groups page for more information.
Registration for Rooted opens in August and January of each year. When registration is open, it will appear at the top of this webpage. Please come back to this webpage in August or January to sign up.

Rooted is a small group experience designed for all Christians, both those new to the faith and those who have been Christians for decades. We encourage every person who calls WACC home to go through Rooted. If Rooted doesn’t feel like the right first step for you, please register for the group that feels like the right fit. If you’re feeling stuck, unsure of which group to choose, please reach out to our Grow Groups team at growgroups@wacc.net
Groups meet seasonally throughout the year, with a break in the summer. Depending on the group you are interested in, there are various times and days throughout the week, and you can choose the option that best fits your schedule. Rooted meets on Thursday nights from September through November and February through April. Please check out our Group Finder below for specific days and times.
If you want guidance on leading your group, we recommend reading: “Making Small Groups Work” by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.
