Our home-based small groups meet throughout the week across Dayton and the surrounding area. Each group gathers for sermon-based discussion, prayer, and fellowship. They’re one of the best ways to build lasting relationships and grow in Christ together.

More about city kids

Students in 6th–12th grade are an important part of our church family and are encouraged to worship and serve alongside us.

Our worship is Christ-centered and heartfelt, blending contemporary songs with timeless hymns.
