Canopies are our name for small groups. These create more intimate gatherings for people to connect and share their lives with other members of the Grandview community.
Canopy Groups
In an amazing natural phenomenon called “canopy shyness,” trees in some forests grow in patterns that allow light to permeate the forest below. The whole forest can be healthy and grow together even though the individual canopies are spread out. This is the idea behind Canopy Groups at Grandview. Canopy Groups are how we gather together in small groups while also being connected to the larger family at Grandview. The goal of Canopy Groups are to gather people together from different places. We have groups for all ages!
Some Canopy Groups are Sunday School classes that have been meeting for decades. Other Canopy Groups meet once a week, while some meet every other week - and a few just meet once a month! Some Canopy Groups “do” things together, some just sit and visit, some study the Bible, some meet in their neighborhoods, and some find still other ways to share time together. Whatever you're looking for, there is a Canopy group for you or space to start one!
This summer we would love to invite you to participate in our Summer Dinner Groups. These will be groups of 6-10 folks who agree to meet 3-4 times over the summer to build community and share a meal together. Groups will have the freedom to go out to eat together or share in a backyard bbq. It’s a great chance to get to know some new folks here at Grandview. Register here to participate.
Adult Sunday School Classes
We have a variety of Adult Sunday School classes at our Buffalo Campus. All are open to newcomers.
Calling Group Canopy
This group serves Grandview’s shut-ins, those in the hospital, and those in need of pastoral care. They meet at our Buffalo Campus each Tuesday morning at 9:45am. This is a great way to meet new people and care for others.
College Age Canopy
Once a month, let us buy you lunch! During the school year Grandview College Age folks get together to eat and to pray together once a month. Come on out, whether it’s your first time or your fifth!

Widow’s Might Canopy
All widows are invited to participate in this canopy. They meet once a month usually for an activity, lunch, and fellowship.

This group of ladies gathers to study the Bible, pray together, and stay connected to one another.
