BETTER TOGETHER
WE’RE DESIGNED TO LIVE IN COMMUNITY
Real life change happens in meaningful relationships. Of course, our most important relationship is with God, but He designed us for community, saying, “It is not good for man to be alone.”
Jesus commanded us to make disciples (ones who follow) and modeled this by inviting a small group of people into his daily life.
We also see the early church meeting together in the temple and in homes (Acts 2:46; 5:42). It’s essential that we develop opportunities for meaningful relationships which encourage transformative change to take place – where we don’t just hear the Word taught, but we talk about it together and help each other apply it to our lives.

GROUPS FAQs
-
Rust City Groups happen 4 times a year for 6-weeks at a time. We find it's helpful for there to be on/off-ramps and breaks in between sessions so that new people feel comfortable to join and new groups can launch!
-
Groups have discussion centered around the content of Rust City's Sunday messages, taking it deeper with reflective questions and life application. While the content is important, groups are primarily focused on building relationships!
-
Yes, but we highly recommend that you don’t take on too much. It’s better to be fully committed to one group, than partially to a few.
-
Childcare info can be found within the details of each group. Most groups do not provide childcare, but some do. Other groups are kid friendly, so even though there may not be childcare provided--there's room for your kiddos in the bunch!
-
Groups can be labeled as "closed" if they have met max capacity and cannot accommodate more people. You can always send a message to the leader to see if they have space.
-
We get that everyone has busy schedules, so it's no biggie if you can't make it to group every week. But we still encourage you to pick a group that works best with your schedule, so you can make it as often as possible! Sessions are only 6 weeks long so do your best to adjust your schedule to make it work!
-
You do not have to be a member of Rust City to join a group. If you have a friend who would like to join, they're more than welcome!
-
Yes, though we encourage you to try it out for a few weeks! We would never force you to stay in a group, but we do hope you communicate with the leader to let them know, rather than just ghosting them.
