About Groups

Groups at Foothills are groups of 12-15 people who get together each week in convenient locations to grow spiritually, make new friends and have fun together. Groups are a great way to meet new people while growing in your faith!

Summer Groups kick off the week of June 4, unless otherwise noted, and come to an end in August - Summer groups only last 8 weeks! There are 13 great groups to choose from that meet all over the canyon!
