Life Groups

Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT ARE LIFE GROUPS?

Life groups are a strategic part of life at Cypress. This is where (and how) we obey the centerpiece phrase of our purpose statement – LOVE ONE ANOTHER. The Sunday service, where we practice worshiping Jesus together, is really just the first half of a whole experience that is completed in a life group environment in someone’s home. Sermons impress, but life groups help us to process the teaching we have heard so that it can transform us. 

WHO ARE LIFE GROUPS FOR?

Life Groups are for people who have made Cypress their home church. Groups meet weekly or bi-monthly over the course of a 7 week period. Life Group Members are encouraged to process through the questions before each meeting to be prepared for discussion centered on Jesus! Groups are hosted and facilitated by trusted members of our church body.

WHEN ARE LIFE GROUPS?

Groups meet at various times, on different days, and locations throughout the week/month. This is to be accommodating to the schedules of members in the group. Some groups meet at Cypress, some on Zoom, and others meet in homes on the Monterey Peninsula.

Life Group Stories

Being a part of the a small group has meant immediate family. Each person accepted me wholly and made it feel as though we've always been a great group of friends. MaryJo and Brian are gracious souls who exemplify and honor our Lord not only by opening their home to our group each week, but also by opening their hearts, ears, and arms.

Nicole Wrenn - Group Member

Our small group has grown us as Christians by diving deeper into the sermons, understanding the Word, and using our combined knowledge to serve the community together. Our active small group is our trusted family. Small Groups open up opportunities that are not available in Sunday Services. Small Groups become the very essence of Christianity - learning together, becoming a family, and helping others less fortunate.
