Formation Groups
Trinity Formation Groups are a nine-month guided journey designed to help you grow spiritually, discern your calling, and build rhythms that last.
Deepen your life with God.
We live in a world that constantly pulls for more—more productivity, more noise, more urgency. But the invitation of Jesus is different. Rather than adding more to your plate, this experience helps you slow down and become more attentive—to God, to your life, and to your calling.
Formation Groups are a structured, group-based spiritual formation experience developed by one of our bishops, Brian Wallace, while he was at Fuller Theological Seminary. Over nine months, you’ll join up to 25 others from Trinity who are seeking the same thing: a deeper, more grounded life with God. Along the way, there will be weekly reflections, monthly small group gatherings, and quarterly retreats. Together, you’ll engage in spiritual practices, prayer, and honest conversation that open space for transformation, all designed to cultivate a deeper life with God. View a sample of the topics covered.
Our hope is that through this journey, you’ll not only experience God and others in new ways but also discover rhythms that sustain you long after the group ends.
This is not about information—it’s about formation. Not about performing—but becoming.
Formation Groups are for those who:
Desire a deeper relationship with God
Want to integrate faith into everyday life
Are open to growth, reflection, and community
Sense a calling but want greater clarity and sustainability
Are ready to commit to a process
Here’s what to expect.

Quarterly Retreats - Extended time for reflection, prayer, and connection
Take the next step!
Applications for Formation Groups 2026-2027 are now open. The deadline to apply is May 30, 2026.
Because of the depth of this experience, we ask participants to make a meaningful commitment of time, money, and energy. Participants agree to: 1) engage weekly, 2) attend monthly small group gatherings, 3) participate in all retreats, and 4) come with openness, humility, and respect for others. You’ll also confirm that your family, friends, or church leaders are supportive of your participation.
Space is limited to 25 people total, with small groups of 5 participants each. The $250 cost covers all meals and content. We don’t want the cost to stand in the way of participation, so discounts are available.
If you sense an invitation to go deeper in your faith, we’d love for you to apply. View the application to learn about the process, retreat dates, and more.
