HELPING YOU Find COMMUNITY
Community Events
The church doesn't just exist for itself, it exists for everyone. Therefore, we want to serve our city through charity and events that build a safer and more welcoming community.
Small Groups
We believe life is better together. Groups are a small group of adults that get together weekly throughout the year to connect, grow spiritually, and navigate life together.

What we believe
Frequently asked Questions
How can I become a member?
We don't have the kind of membership where you take a class and sign a paper. We consider those who are actively serving, inviting, giving, and in a group our members.
What's your mission and vision?
Our mission is to create space for you to grow your gifts and become a Christ-like leader. Our vision is to make churches that unchurched people love to attend.
What do you believe about giving?
We believe we should give generously in a planned and percentaged way. Example: the 1st of every month 8% of your total income. Check out our giving page for more information.
I'm not sure about religion, can I visit?
Yes, we started Infuse with you in mind! We'd encourage you to grab a free Faith Growth Guide on the back table. If you would like to get coffee with Pastor Taylor and discuss faith questions further, email: taylor@infuse.church.
How do I get more involved?
You can join our Get in the Game Group. Receive a personalized plan for next steps you can take to grow personally, in faith, and with Infuse Church. Find out more here.
Why do you meet in a school?
Because it's trendy and all the coolest churches are doing it! Kidding... kind of. Space is hard to come by in the Iowa City area, so we're grateful to have a strong relationship with the CCA school district and also to be more a part of the community this way.
