Groups, Events & Courses

Many of our small groups are specifically designed for married couples or families. Groups across all our campuses can be found at ncc.re/groups. Here, you can filter by family-friendly options (childcare provided or kids included), groups specifically for couples and families, or groups focused on marriage, parenting, finances, and more!
