At NSCBC, we believe that the Gospel of Jesus Christ creates a unique and transformed community that is called and sent out to live on mission together. Based on Acts 2:42, our groups create communities where people are growing in knowledge and application of Scripture, where they are known and loved, and where they are spurred on to carry out Jesus’ mission in the places where they live, learn, work, and play. We would like to connect you with one of these groups! Take a look at the list below and select a group or two that interest you – remember the day of the week and group number. Then click on the button at the bottom of the page to sign up. Contact smallgroups@nscbc.org with any questions. The small group signup form can be found HERE.
Many of our small groups take a break from meeting regularly in the summer, but they often still connect about once/month socially. If you are submitting the sign up form in the summer, please note that there may be a delay in getting connected.

Youth Small Groups
Middle School Small Groups meet bi-weekly on Wednesday nights from 7-8:30pm at host homes in our local communities. Youth group and small groups alternate weeks—never meeting on the same Wednesday even. Through the guidance of our middle school girls’ small group leaders, the girls are studying through the gospel of Mark, applying the gospel to the challenges of being a teen on the North Shore. Through the guidance of our middle school boys’ small group leaders, the boys are learning what it means for Jesus Christ to be “the way, the truth, the life” that brings identity, meaning, and purpose to all of life.
High School Small Groups meet once-a-week on Wednesday evenings from 7-8:30pm at host homes in our local communities. With the leadership of our high school girls’ leaders, our girls are discussing, learning, and practicing the importance of cultivating a life of prayer and intimacy with God. With the guidance of our high school boys’ leaders, our boys are studying the life of King David as a pointer to the True King, Jesus Christ, and how this reshapes our identity, our challenges in life, and our view of leadership.
