Small groups are an extension of Table fellowship at Village Church.
As we welcome more and more people to the Table on Sunday mornings, we are setting smaller tables where relationships and connection can happen throughout the week and in greater depth. Our small groups use a trimester system, meeting for 8-10 week periods three times per year.
Winter 2026 Small Groups
Winter groups will begin the week of January 5th and end the week of February 9th. Groups will be added throughout December, so check back!
Exact group locations are available once you sign up for a specific group through Church Center.
