Adult Groups
Atonement is excited to engage adults in a variety of opportunities to grow deep in their faith in God and knowledge of the Bible, and give opportunities for hands-on mission.
Growth Groups
Growth groups are Atonement’s small groups, gathering at varying times in the week to dig into each week’s sermon. Sermon discussion guides are based on the weekly sermon to lead group discussions. Groups are formed and reformed each fall, winter, and spring, with participation being flexible during each cycle.

Womens’ Circles at Atonement
Circles are made up of all of the women of the congregation.
Circles — “Circles” are small groups of women who meet monthly to receive support, develop relationships, enhance their understanding of their relationship with God and serve others. They are about faith and fun. Each circle has a chairperson.
Our circles are involved in many ministries at Atonement and in the community. Examples of outreach projects are:
Creating hand-made quilts, which are shipped to countries designated by Lutheran World Relief
Knit-Wits (knitting afghans for nursing homes, homeless shelters, etc.)
Prayer Shawls for people facing challenges
Kathy’s House (monthly meals for patients and caregivers traveling to the Milwaukee area hospitals for medical treatment)
Monetary donations for Siena House (a homeless shelter in Waukesha)
Volunteer at the Hope Center in Waukesha
