Groups and Classes
Explore Faith. Meet People. Grow Deeper in Faith.
We offer classes and groups to help everyone take their next step.
All options meet in person unless otherwise noted.
Meeting Jesus at the Table – Lenten study
6:15-7:30 p.m. Wednesdays – Hyde Park campus
6:15-7:30 p.m. Thursdays – 3 Daughters Brewing (St. Pete)
The Gospels are full of stories of Jesus sharing meals with disciples, friends, even tax collectors and Pharisees. Whether multiplying bread to feed a whole crowd, relaxing with his inner circle, or telling curious elites stories about even greater banquets, Jesus imparts wisdom as he shares the wine and grants forgiveness as he distributes the fish. This study provides biblical insights along with thought-provoking queries regarding our own time, such as whom should we invite to Sunday dinner and who is left out and left behind in our culture today.
New Couples with Kids Group

New Young Professionals Group

Life is busy with work, volunteering, friends and everything else. Carving out intentional time to connect and grow in your faith is important, and we want to help you do that. Start your week strong at 7 p.m. Mondays for one hour. Let us know you’re interested.
Want to Join a New Group?
Days and times will vary.
We believe that God created us to be connected to one another, and we know that with our busy lives, we have to be intentional to get out of rows and into circles together. Small groups help us grow in love together, because trying to follow Jesus by ourselves is hard. Click the button below to get the process started!
Just Talk – A Monthly Mental Health Gathering
Starting soon monthly on a Thursday
Life can be hard. We want to help. Perhaps you have questions related to mental health. Perhaps you weren’t even sure you had questions, but you know that you need help. This 1-hour time can be a place to talk and ask questions, as you navigate your next step. Interested? Email the Rev. Sally Campbell-Evans for details.
