City Groups

Spring 2025

What is a City Group?

A community of small groups where you can build real friendships and begin, renew, or expand your walk with God. City Groups are a great first step! Groups are led by regular people who want to point people towards Jesus. Each group runs on a session model, and each session lasts 8-10 weeks.

Mondays

I love to ride other people's jet skis, camp as far back into the woods as possible, and read a good horror novel before bed."

Pendleys - Hello! Were the Pendleys - Ethan, Katie, Grayson (10), and Emma (7). We’re excited to dive into co-leading small group for the first time with the Drege family. Living in Mapleton has been such a blessing for us, and we truly enjoy the slower pace that small-town living offers. As a homeschooling family, we spend a lot of time together. Some of our favorite activities include biking, playing games, helping coach our kids’ sports teams, and staying active within the homeschool community in the FM area. We can’t wait to grow together in faith and fellowship with our small group this season!
Dreges - Hey! We are the Dreges and have been blessed with 3 beautiful kiddos! We spend our time watching our kids do what they love and as a family enjoy quality time in the outdoors, being with friends and family, and walking out our faith journey. Can't wait to meet you and grow together!
