Small Groups

    Life is better together. We grow relationally and spiritually when we open ourselves up and invest in the lives of others. In times like these, it's more important than ever to be connected with others.


    At Fort Caroline, Small Groups are the primary way we grow together. Our goal is that everyone who comes to our church has the opportunity to join a community and grow in Jesus. We offer a variety of Small Groups that meet on-campus or off-campus throughout the week, so there's a group for everyone. To view our current small groups, scroll below.
