What is a Microchurch?

Small Gatherings. Big Impact.

At Utah Valley Church, we believe church isn’t just a building or an event—it’s people following Jesus together in everyday life. That’s why we gather in what we call microchurches.

A microchurch is a small spiritual community—usually 10 to 20 people—who meet regularly in homes, coffee shops, or around kitchen tables. Each one centers around three simple rhythms: connecting with God, building real relationships, and living on mission together.

Microchurches meet throughout the week across Utah County—some on weeknights, others on weekends, depending on what works best for each group. They’re places to share meals, open Scripture, pray for one another, and find ways to serve your neighborhood and city.

It’s church on a smaller, more personal scale—designed to fit into the rhythm of real life.

If you’ve ever longed for genuine community, meaningful faith conversations, and a way to live out your faith beyond Sunday, a microchurch is a great place to start.

Find your people. Live your faith. Be the church, right where you are.

This Week:

Series: Teach Us to Pray
Week 3- Your Kingdom Come, Your Will Be Done
Service Date: June 7, 2026

Series Introduction

Jesus gave us a simple, honest way to talk with Our Father. This series walks phrase by phrase through the Lord’s Prayer so prayer becomes real, daily, and shared.

Each week in micro-church you’ll explore:

• What do we discover about God?

• What do we discover about us?

• What is God teaching me personally?

• What would it look like to respond in faith and obedience?

• Who can I share this with?

Engage with Scripture

Read the following passages together as a group, then answer the questions below

  • Matthew 6:10
  • Luke 17:20-21
  • I Kings 3:5-14
  • Matthew 26:39
  • Ephesians 3:14-21
  • Romans 12:2
  • John 14:27

Discussion Questions

  1. What do we learn about God’s kingdom and His will from these texts?
  2. What does this reveal about our tendency to cling to our own plans?
  3. What is the Father teaching you right now about surrender? Where is it hardest to say “Your kingdom come, Your will be done?”
  4. Practically, what would it look like to pray and live “Your will be done” this week?
  5. Who are you discipling or could you invite to pray this kingdom prayer with you?

Closing Prayer Prompt


Take prayer requests. Close with everyone praying the Lord’s Prayer together.

Additional Resources

Story Cards

  1. Take 10-15 minutes for refreshments and fellowship.
  2. Read the guidelines.
  3. Sing 1-3 worship songs together.
  4. Pray for your gathering.
  5. Read the passage out loud or tell from memory. Sometimes it is helpful to have people listen rather than reading along.
  6. Ask the questions below and give each person a chance to respond to every question. Allow about 1 minute or so per person for each question. If you have more than 10 people, break into two groups.
  7. Take prayer requests.
  8. Pray for the group.
  9. Finish on time but allow others to stay and visit afterward if needed.

 THIS IS A SAFE GROUP

We will all do our part to create an environment where everyone can be real, open & honest with their struggles and victories.  

  • Keep your sharing focused on your own thoughts and feelings.  Try to use“I” statements rather than “them”, “they”, “we”, “us”, “the church”, etc.
  • There is NO cross talk.  Cross talk is when two individuals engage in conversation excluding all others.  Each person is free to express his or her feelings without interruptions.
  • We are here to support one another, not “fix” one another. Let’s value one another during our discussions by really listening to what is being shared.
  • Anonymity and confidentiality are basic requirements.  What is shared in the group stays in the group.
  • It’s okay to share about your personal faith journey, but please refrain from making derogatory statements against other religions.

WE WILL COMMIT TO RESOLVING CONFLICT BIBLICALLY

When conflict or sin issues between group members arise, we want to make sure that we are honoring God and each other in the way we deal with these issues. The following are a few key Scripture references regarding conflict resolution (there are many others).

  • Someone has sinned against you (Matthew 18:15-20)
  • Restoring someone who is in sin (Galatians 6:1-5)
  • Forgiving a sinner (Colossians 3:12-13)
  • Reconciling differences (Matthew 5:23-24; Matthew 7:1-5)

Here I Am To Worship

Verse 1

Light of the world
You stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes let me see
Beauty that made
This heart adore You
Hope of a life spent with You

Chorus

So here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
And You’re altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me

Verse 2

King of all days
Oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly You came
To the earth You created
All for love’s sake became poor

Bridge

And I’ll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
And I’ll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
