Oikos Groups
Looking for Community?
Take your next step...
We have a few ways to connect with our church and go deeper in your faith. ​
Open House
We’d love to share lunch with you. We have a monthly lunch after the Sunday Gathering at Central BBQ just down the road. You can meet some of our leaders, ask questions, and hear our story. Email Reid Stafford for info (reid@oikosmemphis.org).
Welcome Home
If you’re ready to go deeper in your faith, or if you’re looking for community, then Welcome Home is your best next step. It’s an 8-week discipleship course that runs a few times each year for new people at Oikos. Complete the Welcome Home interest form, and we’ll be in touch with details on when our next round is set to begin.
Oikos Groups
Life is better together. That’s why Oikos Groups are the heart of our church family. Our groups meet weekly in homes around the city and are built on one simple conviction: church is meant to feel like family.
​
Our groups are multigenerational—meaning, kids, young adults, parents, and older adults all share life and faith together. We believe this mix reflects the beauty of the church and helps form lasting faith across every generation.
Oikos Groups follow a simple rhythm.​
Worship: On the first Sunday of the month, we move worship to homes.
Reflect: Once a month, groups will make space for biblical, prayerful, and vulnerable reflection.
Play: We believe joy is essential to transformation, so about once a month groups will play together.
Serve: Our groups seek to serve our neighbors and city about once a month.
Since our groups are larger, many have DNA Groups that meet each month. DNA Groups are gender-specific groups of 3-5 adults who meet about once a month for spiritual friendship. These environments are designed to provide DNA—discipleship, nurture, and accountability. Due to the trust and intimacy of these settings, DNA is reserved for partners and regular group members.
