SMALL GROUPS

The vision for Small Groups at WRCC is to create smaller, more intimate spaces within our congregation to live out our church’s overall vision: 
To be a life-changing community of authentic believers, passionately pursuing Christ, unshakably committed to His word, thoroughly equipped to serve, contagiously influencing our world for Him.

To this end, Small Groups at WRCC are defined as: A gathering of people who have an invested interest in coming together regularly to spend time in God’s word, pray, build intentional community, and serve in a size that is conducive for being known.

Currently, we have men’s groups, women’s groups, and co-ed groups. Furthermore, some groups gather around shared life stage while others are multi-generational. Please follow the link below to preview our groups. If you have any questions about small groups or are interested in learning about the process of becoming a group leader, please email smallgroup@windsorroad.org.

COMMUNITY GROUPS

Community Groups at WRCC are intentional spaces where people can connect and build community around shared interests and backgrounds.

HIKING GROUP

Every Saturday | 9am | meet @ the Firepit

Enjoy God's creation while connecting with others who love the outdoors! This group explores forest preserves throughout Champaign, Piatt, McLean, and Vermilion counties. Each outing offers a choice of either a 1-mile or 3–4-mile hike at the same location. Master Naturalists often join the group to share insights about local plants, wildlife, and nature. Bring water and snacks as needed. Leashed dogs are welcome. Participants are responsible for their own transportation, though informal carpooling is often available, and all hikers assume personal liability.
