We want everyone who attends Stonecreek to experience a more personal place to connect and grow in his or her relationship with Jesus Christ. We believe a Connection Group is the best place to be encouraged and equipped in your daily walk with Jesus Christ.
What is a Connection Group?
Each group is made up of five to six couples or five to eight individuals who are in the same life stage, area of town and/or are interested in a similar study. This is the place where people are personally encouraged through the study of God's word and prayer as well as challenged in their relationship with God and each other.
How do I get started? Attend Group Launch.
Group Launch is a 90-minute event where you will learn more about Connection Groups, meet others in your area and stage of life, and form a 10-week group. To register for the next Group Launch, visit the Segue desk in the Stonecreek main entrance lobby or contact Kelly Matthews (770-754-7900 x110, ). Learn more about Group Launch.
What types of groups do you offer?
Stonecreek has Connection Groups for every age, stage of life and spiritual maturity level. Groups meet in homes across the North Fulton, Woodstock and South Forsyth areas. Whether you are a man or woman, single or married, have kids or not, there is a Connection Group for you!

Single Moms
A supportive place for single moms to find prayer, fellowship and encouragement. Open to all single moms of any age. Single Mom's groups have the option of meeting in the daytime or evening. And, for further assistance and group options, we also recommend DivorceCare.
How long does a Connection Group last?
A group usually stays together for 12-24 months and then multiplies into other groups at a Group Launch.
What if I don't seem to connect with the group I/we're in?
Group Launch is designed to help you form an iGroup (Initial Group), which is an introductory step into group life, that lasts approximately 10 weeks. At the end of 10 weeks, the group members either decide to continue as a Connection Group and extend their commitment to 12 months or dissolve and form another iGroup through the next Group Launch.
