“We were terrified to join a connect group, but that is where we learned to let people love us and learned how to love other people.”

What is a Connect Group
Connect Groups at Compel Church are opportunities to connect with people who share your interests, who are at a similar stage in life, or who have experience in an area where you would like to grow. A group is 3-12 people who meet regularly at various times and locations.
The Need For Connection
At the center of the human soul is the need for connection. Without relationships, it is impossible to thrive. Connect Groups open the door to form those healthy relationships while encouraging others to take their next step in their walk with Christ.
Connect Groups
Find Your Group
Every group here is open, and every one of them started with someone walking in for the first time. Filter by campus, by what the group is for, or by the night you are free.

Stories of Life Change
Watch Now!
“I thought I was alone, but opening myself up to receive from other people has given me so much freedom.”
“I come to church now, and instead of sitting there thinking, ‘I want to belong,’ now I really just belong.”
"The biggest change in my life was learning how to be a man, that what you need is accountability."

Our small groups meet for a semester, basically about 3 months. We have a spring and a fall semester. You are given the opportunity to change after each semester.
Most groups meet for about 75-90 minutes. Some social groups may meet longer depending on their activity but you will always know how long to expect the meeting to last.
Childcare is not always available for every group. You will always know ahead of time if it is available for your group or not.
Some groups meet in homes, others meet at the campus, some meetings are available through Zoom, some meet at other locations. There is always a variety and there’s always an option for you.
Yes! If a group is still open for sign-ups, there is always room for a new friend. Many people join Connect Groups throughout the semester, even in the final few weeks. Don’t worry about joining “too late”—our goal is to help you find community and experience the power of doing life together.
