discipleship and community
Small Groups
We believe that discipleship also involves nurturing one’s spiritual formation and sense of Christian community. Whether in the form of weekday small groups, men’s and women’s ministries, book clubs, or contemplative practices, there are opportunities for you to join with others to engage in honest conversations to make spiritual sense of our changing world.

Weekly Bible Studies
Wherever you are in your faith journey, we have a Bible study for you. FPC offers three, pastor-led Bible studies every Wednesday. Choose a women’s group, a ZOOM group, or a lunchtime discussion on campus.
Women’s Circles
Women’s Circles are committed to creating community and learning together. Groups for all ages meet weekly, monthly, and on occasion. Don’t have time to join a group? The annual Women’s Retreat is the next to last weekend in January.

Men’s Ministry
Men’s Ministry at FPC includes opportunities for men to gather in small groups for prayer, discussion and fellowship. Watch for the quarterly Men’s Breakfasts too– a larger group gathering with a guest speaker and good food.
