We’re so excited that you're interested in RVCC GROUPS! We believe that following Jesus, and growing in that journey, happens best doing life alongside others. Finding a group for this next season of life is a great way to learn, make friends, and grow.

On this page you will find 27 RVCC Group options that will be meeting during the Fall quarter. You are invited to pick a group and jump in for ten weeks (unless otherwise noted). Joining a group is not a lifetime commitment, so at the end of those ten weeks, you may decide to stay with that group or give another group a try during the next session in January.

How Does This Work?

  1. Look through the RVCC Groups page and pick the group you’d like to join
  2. Click the "I'm Ready to Join a Group!" button and tell us the number of the group you'd like to join
  3. The group leader will be in touch with more information
  4. Meet with your group and watch God work in your life

ROOTED

GROUP #1

Rooted is not just another study or curriculum. Not even close. It is a 10-week discipleship pathway to get you connected to God, the church, serving in our community, and discovering your purpose. It's powerful and life-changing. Rooted is a great next step no matter who you are. If you’ve never taken Rooted, or it’s been a few years, we encourage you to consider this option for fall.

What to Expect
  • 10 weeks of group time.
  • 5 days of devotions for each of the 10 weeks.
  • 3 larger group gatherings where the groups meet together.
  • Prayer, Serve, and Celebration experiences!

FINANCIAL PEACE UNIVERSITY

After taking this nine-week class, the average FPU grad is debt-free in two years or less! We’re not saying it’s easy, but it works—if you will. This class will give you the practical tools to implement Biblical financial management. It is inspirational, provides vision, as well all the real-world applications to managing money.
