Small Group Opportunities

Bible Studies

Bible studies offer opportunities to delve a little deeper into the Bible, meet new people, and serve together as a community.

Book Studies

Several times a year, CtK offers seasonal book studies focusing on a variety of topics.  

Recently, two groups have been meeting over Zoom to discuss "Dialogues on Race,"
a reader produced by the ELCA. 

A group will meet beginning in September (likely over Zoom as well) to read and discuss  "Dear Church: A Love Letter from a Black Preacher to the Whitest Denomination in the US"

Create Your Own Small Group

There are a number of ways to connect, study, pray, and serve together. Plant a community garden. Organize a cross-country skiing or snowshoeing group. Whatever your interest or place in your faith journey, we can make a small group for that.
