COMMUNITY

Loving & Living Like Jesus

Ongoing community is at the heart of New Bridge. In these smaller communities, we learn how to personally grow as followers of Jesus, give and receive support in daily life, and seek to make God’s love known in the natural spheres of life. 

If you are new, we recommend your first step be Rooted.

ROOTED

A ten-week journey to connect you with God,
the church, and your purpose.

Sign up for Rooted

  • At New Bridge, we see Rooted as the first key foundational step into the life of the church beyond Sunday gatherings.

    Your experience in Rooted will expose you to some key practices of following Jesus while connecting you to people in the church.

  • Rooted is for everyone! Whether you're new to church and don't know much about Jesus or have been a Christian for a long time - Rooted is for you.

  • Currently, Rooted runs twice a year in the spring and fall. See our sign-up page for specific days and times of the week it is offered.

654

Helping people to continue in the practice of ongoing Christ-centered community.

654 Sign Up

  • The 654 model is seasonal, short, small group format.

    The purpose is to give a framework for community and practice key aspects of following Jesus.

    It takes its cues from Rooted.

  • 6 People | 5 Weeks | 4 Practices

    The “practices” experienced in a 654 group are derived from Rooted. The four ongoing practices are

    1. Sharing a meal

    2. Sharing your story

    3. Sharing your life (discussion questions)

    4. Sharing your burdens (prayer)

    Groups will also do a serve experience, memorize a scripture, and take communion.

  • Recognizing we all go through different seasons of life, sometimes its difficult to make long term commitments.

    The 654 small group model will help you stay plugged into community while practicing the ways of Jesus.

  • All throughout the year at different times. Click the link below to see the upcoming 654 groups offered.

LIFE GROUPS

Longterm, ongoing small groups that help people live out their discipleship to Jesus.

Find a Lifegroup

  • A Life Group is a long term small group that devotes itself on-going, Christ-centered community.

  • Certain groups open for sign-ups in the spring and fall.

    However, most life groups form organically as people go through Rooted, 654, and meet others in the church.

    To join a group, contact Rachel Fox at rachelf@nbccoly.org.
