Discipleship in Community Groups
Community groups establish a foundation for discipleship by providing a space to cultivate authentic fellowship and genuine faith. You will be formed as a disciple through studying Scripture, discussing insights and questions, praying together, challenging each other in real-life application, and serving our community.
Community Group Meetings
Community Groups meet mostly in host homes across Galveston Island for fellowship and Bible study. They go through Bible-based curriculum that covers different books or sections of the Bible. Groups meet weekly Sunday-Thursday following a school semester schedule. Typically, Fall groups meet September - November and Spring groups meet January - April. All groups take a break May - August for summer. In lieu of community groups during this time, we have a multi-generational Summer Bible Study in June & July hosted at the church for anyone to attend. It is a great place to meet new people over the summer break.
Childcare for Community Groups
For Community Groups that offer childcare, we encourage a payment of $35 per child each semester in order to offset the cost of childcare provided by Coastal. For Community Groups that do not offer childcare, options include splitting the cost of a sitter within the group or making individual arrangements.
For questions, please email groups@discovercoastal.org.
