Life Groups - Bentonville Church of Christ

How to Get Connected to a Life Group

It’s wonderful that you want to join one of Bentonville’s small groups.  We know it can be a scary to visit a group where you don’t know anyone and aren’t sure of the expectations. 

We will do everything we can to make your first experience with Life groups a safe, secure, and rewarding one!

How to get started!

The Easiest – When you visit church someone runs up to you and says “wow, we are so glad you’re here, would you like to come visit my Life Group this week”  Ok, I’m trying to be funny, but it might happen!

More Likely - As you meet people when you’re visiting a church service or Adult Bible Class ask them if they are in a “Life Group,” they will probably tell you about their group and invite you to their next meeting or, if their full, point you in the right direction for more information on other groups.

We can help – Most of our Life Groups are formed around life stages from Singles to Seniors. We have groups at every life stage and even some multigenerational groups that are more like a large extended family. 

This Sign-up form allows you to tell us about you and your family.  That will help us match you to the best group options for you.

Here’s how the form works - 
1.  Fill in your information and preferences and send the form to us. 
2. We will match your information with our groups and send you up to three group matches. 
3. You will be contacted by one or more leaders to tell you about their groups and invite you to the next meeting.
4. We will follow up with you to see if you found a group and are satisfied.
