This group is set on a Thursday afternoon for those that don't like to drive at night. In the heart of Woodbridge in Ted Tkach's home. You'll enjoy great conversations over the passage and be home in time for dinner.
Stan and Nancy Brown have been at Grace since 2017. The goal of the group is to provide an open setting to discuss the weekly sermon and provide a place to connect with other church members, pray for the needs of the group and open our eyes to the scriptures we are studying.
We are "So Loved" (John 3:16).
Our group started with a few middle-age couples who enjoy hanging out with their teen kids, dads who surf.
Focus- prayer, accountability, Spiritual growth & fun!
Goals- As individuals: be well-pleasing to God (2 Cor 5); As a group, reflect the fullness of Christ (Eph. 4)
NOTE: We will meet every 1st and 3rd Thursday of each month.
This group is designed for parents with young to elementary aged kids. Our culture is becoming a more challenging place for our kids everyday and we want to prepare and help each other to build followers of Jesus Christ as they enter the public square. The Clemons have been attending Grace since 2012. Jacob works in restaurant operations at Board & Brew and has the loud obnoxious laugh in the front right at the 10:30 service. Teri works at Biola University teaching the next generation of Speech therapists. They are passionate about the Denver Broncos as well!

We are a group of people who share the same stage of life. We mainly review and discuss the sermon and support one another in prayer.
We also enjoy our time of fellowship and socials together. We meet every other week.
Year after year we continue to grow together.
Guy & Christi Owen are from Dallas and Memphis and have lived in NB for 43 yrs. We have been married 51 years, have two sons, Scott and Joel Owen both of whom are married and we have five grandchildren ages 6 to 12.
We laugh and cry at many of the same things and have for five decades. We enjoy our family, and love our Home Group and the safe connectedness it provides all of us!
The goal of this group is vulnerability and honesty in sharing what is going on in our hearts and lives. We also seek to take in Scripture in ways that integrate biblical truths with our daily lives. No question is off the table.
A new Newport Beach Home Group with a name you can trust! Teri and Terry Gundlach will lead and host a group with in-depth discussions.
The group consists of (mostly) newly married couples. Many little ones on the way. The group was formed 1 year ago and quickly became tightly-knit, bonding over faith, a common stage of life, good meals and fun. We don't just linger on the surface, however. We also connect by discussing Scripture, sharing from our lives, praying for and supporting each other through hard times.
The vibe of our small group is pretty informal with a focus on interpersonal connection, prayer and review of last week's sermon notes. We change host homes every month.
We are a group of mature Christian couples who love digging into Gods Word on a deeper level, laughing and crying through life together, and playing together when our family life and work schedules allow.
A fun mix of people doing life together in a backyard.
We meet on Sundays after church (12:30/12:45) for a really lively discussion and FOOD! Location determined each week. Sometimes its a potluck, sometimes we'll meet at a restaurant and people will pay for their own food.
We're Chad and Erica Merrihew, and we're excited to lead a Home Group at Grace that's centered on scripture and prayer. We'll be diving into Sunday sermons with thoughtfulness, curiosity, and consistency.
We've been at Grace for over twenty years, and Chad had the privilege of serving on Pastoral staff from 2008 to 2019.
Every Tuesdays Night from 6:30-8:30
We would love this group to be a multi-generational community, with varied backgrounds and ethnicities. Let's grow together as we deepen our knowledge of Jesus and have fun doing so!
A few of us are currently going through the book of Isaiah. Very open to who God is bringing us!
Just a couple of people that have banded together for the last 20 or so years. Journeymen on a journey.
We meet on Sundays after church (after first service) for a really lively discussion and FOOD!
The table expands at the Parson's House.
To mitigate the need for babysitters we rotate between moms night (dads meet virtually), couples meet virtually, dads night (moms meet virtually), and couples night (all get sitters). It's worked really well. We seek to walk through life together, challenging and encouraging each other in the various life circumstances that arise. This means both hanging out casually throughout the week and committing to weekly intentional conversation. Ultimately we seek to grow in faith together, whether through discussing Sunday sermons or a book study. We've all been at Grace for about 10 years, have young children, and are always looking for our next travel spot.
We are a multigenerational group who love to share a meal, life, study and serve together.

*babies welcome
We meet at a motorcycle shop every other week, stream the service and have church.
The goal of this young adults group is to create a space for people to experience loving community and deeper connection during such a transient time. A place where people feel comfortable being themselves and find community. At the same time, a place where they can dive into the Word together and have meaningful discussions.
A small group of familiar faces with big personalities. There is a lot of pressure in this home group because I (Ryan) run home groups. It is safe to say we are all in this together and we need each other!
