Community — Garden City Vineyard

City Groups

What is a City Group?

City Groups aren’t just Bible studies or social hangouts—or even just another meeting to attend. They’re communities where people grow in discipleship, share life together and join in God’s mission. Most groups meet weekly in homes around Milton Keynes, each led by a trusted individual or couple who help create a safe, welcoming space for growth, support, and connection.

City Groups run in three termly blocks throughout the year. Each one is a little different; different people, times, and locations, but they all include time to eat, learn, share, and pray together.

Find a City Group

The best place to start is with the group nearest to where you live. If that’s not an option, just pick the one you’re most likely to stick with consistently. Not sure where to begin? Try out a couple and see which one feels right!

Other kinds of groups

Connecting in other ways

We also have other types of groups that meet at different times and for set periods or seasons.

Affinity Groups

Affinity means ‘an inherent likeness or connection’. Affinity groups happen periodically and are low-barrier ways to connect with others in a similar life stage, gender or shared interest. These are great places to drop in and meet new friends, or invite old friends who don’t call Garden City home.

Weekly Prayer

We believe the church is at its best, and God His most glorious, when His people seek after Him in humble, desperate, passionate prayer. We are hungry to be a people who contend for a fresh move of God’s Spirit in our day and believe that Kingdom advancement is fuelled by prayer.

Core Groups

The goal for Core Groups is to gather regularly with three or four people of the same gender to deliberately pursue Jesus together. Groups practise some of the most neglected commands and disciplines of the Christian life, providing an accessible way of discipling one another through meaningful, accountable relationships.

Formation + Discipleship

Electives

Electives are an important part of how we grow as disciples of Jesus. They’re spaces where we learn together, find inspiration, and discover practical ways to live out our faith in everyday life.

Across the year, we run a variety of streams, each designed to help you take what you’re learning and put it into practice as we follow Jesus intentionally and wholeheartedly.
