In every marriage between two broken people, some rough roads can be expected. From communication to conflict, marriage is never easy and predictable. Our new Intentional Marriage Support Groups are a way to navigate the ups and downs of marriage. Combining large group teaching with small group breakouts, they are a great way to learn from seasoned couples who have been there before and have Biblical and experiential wisdom to impart. Incorporating discussion allows participating couples to learn from each other too, forging long-term bonds of friendship that will last beyond the group experience. At Compass, we want each marriage to have thrive and find their way through the trials and discouragements and find their way to a marriage that lasts! Feel free to come with your spouse or on your own.
Celebrate Recovery, or CR, is a Christ-centered, 12 step recovery program for anyone struggling with a hurt, habit or hang up of any kind. Although participants in CR can have addictions of various kinds, the program also includes support for a wide variety of life issues including co-dependency, sexual purity, family dysfunction, emotional hurts, mental health challenges and more! CR is a safe place to find freedom from the issues that are controlling your life.

James 4:7- Submit yourselves therefore to God, Resist the devil and he will flee from you.
Did you know that one in five U.S. adults live with a mental illness? Fewer than half receive the care that they need! Starting in 2025, we at Compass are teaming up with NAMI(National Alliance on Mental Illness) in order to provide a new support group for those who are family members, partners or friends of individuals with mental illnesses of all kinds. These groups will be led by NAMI trained leaders. The PEER TO PEER SUPPORT GROUP is for partners and friends of individuals who have a mental health challenge and they interact with in a peer, work or family environment. This group will meet on Monday nights as part of Care Night.
One of the greatest challenges in today’s culture is living in tune with our physical health while staying rooted in our spiritual values. In this Bible study, we invite women into a Christ-centered journey of intuitive wellness—one that honors the connection between spirit, mind, and body. Together, we explore how to listen to the Holy Spirit, trust our God-given intuition, and make choices that reflect wholeness from the inside out. Through Scripture, soul care, and practical tools, we cultivate rhythms of rest, nourishment, and movement that align with God’s design for our lives. Join us as we pursue lasting wellness—guided by grace, grounded in truth, and empowered for transformation.
Divorce Care is a group of people who will learn to walk together through one of life’s most difficult experiences- separation or divorce.

A Grief Share support group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotional components of grief. Through this 13-week group, you’ll discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way. Grief Share registrants become automatic alumni and may attend future versions and individual classes of Grief Share free of charge to attend class.
A Special Note…
Workbooks and program materials for this class are provided free of charge in loving memory of Lynda Riecks through a generous donation from the Riecks family. We thank you for helping others work through their grief and not be hindered by financial need.
Many people have anxiety and a variety of other mental health conditions. The Anxiety+ Support Group focuses on improving the participant’s quality of life while living with these kinds of mental health challenges. Through shared experiences, participants gain coping skills and find hope and strength to manage issues. This is an open, mixed gender, ongoing group where new participants can join anytime.
One of the most challenging aspects of anyone’s life is managing money. As costs increase and a dollar doesn’t go nearly as far today as it used to, we want to help you navigate this messed-up money culture. Financial Peace University curriculum gives you the practical lessons, easy-to-use tools, and the supportive community you need to take control of your money—once and for all!
Hope Forward is a Christian support group for those whose lives have been touched by cancer. When someone is diagnosed, it does not just affect one person. It has a ripple effect through everyone in their lives. Our mission for this group is to find hope and peace amid a cancer diagnosis and the ensuing treatment journey by studying God’s Word and supporting each other through the peaks and valleys along the way. We hope that through this group, we can turn a challenging health situation into dedicated, loving, Christ-centered community each week.
One of the most isolating experiences in a woman’s life experience is dealing with infertility of all kinds. The causes are many, but the feelings lead to increasing discouragement, uncertainty and often unknown next steps. Additionally, there are women who are able to get pregnant, but struggle to stay pregnant, resulting in miscarriages that create a blend of excitement and grief in a short period of time. Our Fertility Support Group will help women find a place to express their feelings, mutually care for each other and get Biblical encouragement for strengthening their faith while learning they are not alone. This group meets on the 2nd Monday of the month during Care Night.
Stronger Together Sisterhood provides a safe and welcoming space for women of various ages to share experiences, uplift each other, and find solace in life’s challenges. This open group will use various book studies in conjunction with meaningful sharing of life’s circumstances and situations. Whether seeking encouragement, connection, or spiritual growth, this group is here for you. Let’s navigate life as a woman together, celebrating victories and offering support during challenging times. Join our community and embark on this transformative journey of growth, support, and sisterhood.
You are not alone! Embrace Grace is here to help women walking through the unsteady season of an unplanned pregnancy or women navigating single motherhood by connecting them to a judgment-free support group where they can receive practical help and encouragement.
Losing a spouse is a life altering event. As the initial fog of grief lifts and you begin to wonder what is next, it is helpful to have a group of acquaintances who are following the same journey. We are all widows or widowers who are moving forward and sharing experiences and ideas together.
This group is not for dating and romance. It is group of brothers and sisters sharing success and lifting each other up through fellowship and support. At Compass, every widow and widower deserves compassion, support and respect.
The coffee hour is designed to make acquaintances who eventually become new friends all in a Christian supporting environment. It doesn’t matter if you lost your spouse recently or years ago.
Please join us weekly, starting on Tuesday, Feb. 11 at 10 am in the Café on the main Compass Campus
If compassion is your jam, we’d love to talk to you about joining our team!
