Ongoing Small Groups at CUMC

Small Groups are a wonderful way to connect with other adults on a regular basis for biblical study, fellowship, care and support on your faith journey.  Centreville UMC has many adult small groups which meet regularly, listed below with details and contact information for each group.

If you would like to start a new small group, contact Pastor Geitra Mickelson at gmickelson@centreville-umc.org

Young Adults Ministry

Our young adults ministry is committed to creating a culture of friendship and faith development for people ages 18-35.  Singles as well as couples* are welcome. You do not need to be a member of CUMC or any church to participate. Come and share life’s journey as we plan hangouts, fun social events and adventures, and create small group Bible study opportunities.  Coordinators:  James and Jimmie Pinkowski           jimmiepowers12@gmail.com

Current small group Bible study: Embracing the Journey  - A 6 Week Study

Sundays 12:30-2:00 PM In Person; Led by Garret Youmans.

This study, the first in the Companions in Christ series, focuses on an exploration of spiritual formation as an individual and corporate journey toward wholeness and holiness through the grace of God.
