Villages

village_slide

Villages are little churches of 20-50 people focused on discipleship relationships. The beauty of these “little churches” is they create a community where we are missed when we’re gone, and everyone involved can play a part in something. Each Village is focused on loving a specific neighborhood or network of people in Canton. Village Gatherings feel welcoming and informal, like a family reunion, but those involved are intentional about living a life of following Jesus. They are made up of smaller groups (that we call “Huddles”) where we are able to really be known and intentionally grow closer to Jesus.

All Villages are led by a team of leaders who are held accountable for their lifestyle and what goes on in their Village. The vision and direction of the Village primarily comes from these leaders, but input from the rest of the community is welcome and heard. Every Village has a unique identity and rhythm for doing things, and is a part of the larger LoveCanton community through giving, Celebration, and living lives devoted to Jesus in Canton.

Below is a list of the current LoveCanton Villages. If you are interested in joining a Village, simply contact the Village Leader by the email address linked to their name. They will reply to you with information on how to join their gathering and grow closer in relationship with Christ.
