Belong Groups are the small group ministry of Transformation Church. Participation in a Belong Group is voluntary. This agreement is between a Participant and Transformation Church. The purpose of one joining a Belong Group is to experience spiritual growth, build community, engage with others in a safe environment where people can be themselves, and have fun meeting on a regular basis.
Belong Groups meet on a Semester basis (usually 12 weeks) with a month break between the Semesters. Groups can meet virtually or in-person. Belong Group Facilitators are volunteer leaders who have applied for the role. A facilitator completes a volunteer application, a background check, and is approved by the Belong Group Department. Training and support are provided by the Belong Group Department and the upper tiers of leadership (Captains and Coaches).
