Community Groups

Winter Semester 2026

This Winter, Community Groups will look a little different! Instead of gathering all together at Movement on Wednesday nights, we’re launching multiple small groups led by members of our church family.

These groups will meet in people’s homes or at the church, with dates and times varying based on the group you choose. The Winter semester will run from February through mid March.

These groups are not based on hobbies or shared interests—they're centered around intentional conversation and reflection tied to Sunday’s sermons. This is a space to walk out what we’re learning together and grow in spiritual community.

You’ll find details below for each group—including the group demographic, leaders’ names, time and location, and a brief description to help you find the best fit. After signing up, leads will reach out to connect with you directly.

 If you have any questions about Community Groups or need help choosing the right one, feel free to reach out to our Groups Lead, Sarah Corbin, at sarah@movementalabama.com
