Our Small Groups are where we make a big church feel small. It is where the meaning of "church family" comes into focus. We believe that a healthy church is made up of dynamic Bible-centered large group worship, as well as small groups where transformational living is taught and modeled. That happens when we combine application of Scripture through living life together in community.
Weekend Groups
Each Sunday on our campus, we have over 30 Adult Groups that meet for biblical community at 8:30, 10:00, and 11:00am. We have groups for every age and stage! It is our conviction that to fully engage in the family of First Naples, Small Groups are a must. You can find more details on the groups that meet by searching below.
Midweek Groups
Our On-Campus Midweek groups meet at 6:30pm on Wednesdays, all across our campus. Men’s and Women’s Ministries meet for large group teaching and small group discussion, and our Students and Kids ministries have their own activities. Look below to get connected with the groups that fit you and your family!
Home Groups
Groups meet in a variety of places, like homes, restaurants, coffee shops, and office buildings. Jesus met with His disciples on hillsides, in boats, and in homes, not just at the temple. God created us for community, no matter what building we meet in. If you are interested in leading a Home Group please click the button below to let us know and find out more information!
