Small Groups

At Westgate, we aren’t a church with small groups, we are a church of small groups. We believe our small groups are the lifeblood of our family. Our small groups consist of Life Groups, ABC Groups, Share Groups, and D-Groups (Discipleship Groups).

Listed below is a short rundown of what falls under the Small Group umbrella and what each one means, along with a sign-up for each small group.

Our ABC Groups are: Ladies’ Bible Recap (ladies class for all ages); Deeper (textual studies); Men’s Class; Ladies’ Bible Study (ladies class for all ages); Pathfinders (College/20s); Young Ladies (ladies class for ages 20-35); Praise Team (1st and 3rd Wed); and Re/Generation (Addiction and Recovery).


Share Groups

Share Groups consist of people who share a common interest (exercise, golf, sewing, cooking, etc.) and are focused on building community and friendships while intentionally looking for ways to include people who need to hear the Good News about Jesus or other Christians who need encouragement. These typically meet weekly, bi-monthly, or monthly.

  • Book Club (Rita Lunsford)

  • Quilting (Vanessa Clark)

  • Exercise/Walking (Kelli Heer and Heather Harden)

  • Golf (Greg Wakefield and Whit Lovinggood)

  • Disc Golf (Devin Morris and Jess White)

  • Pickleball (Chris and Allison Jones)

  • Board Games (Joanne Smith)

  • Sisterhood Breakfast Club (Teresa Girton and Angie Jackson)

  • Crochet Club (Karen Beeson)


D-Groups (Discipleship Groups)

Discipleship Groups are made up of three to four people who meet together each week to pray and study the Bible using the Discovery Bible Study method. The goal of these groups is to become better disciples of Jesus through prayer and studying Scripture together.
