In the fast-paced, tech-driven culture of Silicon Valley, authentic relationships can be hard to come by—but they are essential. At Bethel, we believe real-life change happens when people step out of the crowd and into meaningful community. That’s why we create safe, welcoming spaces where you can grow spiritually, build friendships, and be supported through life’s highs and lows.
Groups are where we:
Pray for each other,
Build trust and belonging,
Grow deeper in God’s Word, and
Turn a crowd into a thriving, connected family.
No matter where you are on your journey, we have a group for you.
Live the 5G Lifestyle—Gather, Grow, Go, Giveback, Glorify
Ready to take your next step? Bethel Next Steps+ is a 9-week mid-size group experience designed to help you live the 5G Lifestyle—gathering in community, growing in faith, going on mission, giving back generously, and glorifying God every day. Led by Pastor Frank Silverii, this journey will challenge, equip, and empower you to walk out your faith in real, practical ways.

For anyone feeling stuck or longing for breakthrough, Live Free Groups are designed to help you experience freedom through Christ. In these groups, you’ll find a supportive community focused on healing, wholeness, and walking in the power of God’s Word. Whether you’re overcoming personal struggles, breaking old patterns, or seeking emotional and spiritual freedom, this is where freedom becomes real—and lasting.
We know life in Silicon Valley moves fast, but true growth happens in intentional spaces. Grow Groups meet weekly in homes, coffee shops, or online, offering a place for real conversations and life-giving friendships. These small groups are designed for people looking to deepen their faith, be challenged, and form relationships that encourage personal and spiritual growth.
We’re better together—and we’re better when we have fun together! Activity and Affinity Groups gather around shared passions like hiking, book clubs, sports, and other hobbies. These groups help you build Christ-centered friendships while doing what you love. Whether you’re new to church or looking for ways to connect beyond Sunday, these groups are a great way to make Bethel feel like home.
In a world of isolation, anonymity, and keyboard-warriors, Alpha offers content and guidance for churches, ministries, and individuals to create a space for honest and open conversations about life’s biggest questions. Everyone is welcome and no questions are off limits.
Every Sunday | 9:30AM | Keys Chapel | San Jose Campus
Real Life: Join us on Sunday mornings where we dig deeper into God’s word, grow in our faith, and apply it to our everyday lives. Grow in community as we share with each other what God is teaching us while building meaningful friendships, encouraging each other as we do this thing called “life” together. We were built for community, we aren’t meant to do this alone. Whether you have been in the faith for a long time or you are new to the faith, whether you are young or old, everyone is welcome. Let’s learn from each other.
Want to start your own group? We’ll equip you with everything you need! You can use Sermon Discussion Questions, host a game night, or lead a prayer meeting—the possibilities are endless!
