If you currently participate in worship, but have never really experienced the awesome benefits of participation in a caring, connecting small group, it's time to see what a difference being a part of a small group can make in your life!

Grouplink, offered three times each year, is the easiest way for you to find a small group, Sunday School class or topical Bible study that best fits your needs and schedule. All of our Sunday School classes are open to guests.

OUMC's C3 small groups are now meeting in neighborhoods throughout our community, while additional groups will be forming soon, so that everyone who desires a deeper level of community can experience it.

C3 represents the three C's of small group life: Caring, Community, and Connecting.

• Caring - Small groups are the best environment for friends to share life together. These friends care for one another in good times and bad, and help learn about God as we journey together.
• Community - Beyond the corporate worship experience, small groups help us experience authentic, Biblical community where we can be real about life's ups and downs. Community enables trust and helps us to experience all that God designed for us.
• Connection - Small groups seek to help us connect with God in an intimate, personal relationship as well as fostering a desire within us to connect with those who are still seeking that close relationship with God.

A C3 small group is made up of 8 to 12 people who covenant to share life together for a period of 18 to 24 months. They meet together at least twice a month to enjoy friendship, worship, study, and service together.
