First Saturday Serve
On the first Saturday of each month, teams meet at various locations to share God's love in practical ways by caring for the felt needs within our community.
Tuesday at 6:30 PM
We gather together to work on projects, share a devotional, fellowship, pray and bless our community. You can bring a project of your own or work on one we've already started. Group projects are donated to the community. All ages are welcome and no experience is necessary. Current projects include tie blankets, loom hats, knitted and crocheted scarves, hats and blankets.
Saturday at 10:00 AM
We will meet Bi-Weekly on Saturday. This is an opportunity for young Women of God to meet together in community and fellowship, growing and championing one another in our walk with God digging into His word in all seasons of life.
The schools are one of the largest mission fields right in our neighborhoods. This group will meet monthly to inspire, encourage, and equip one another to take ground in our local schools. Let's be the hands and feet of Jesus! We will share ways to get involved in the schools, pray for one another, and take time to connect. Come join us as we encourage one another. You are not alone!
This group is open to any single woman - young or old - who desires to be a part of a community of other single women as they journey together to gain a greater understanding of God's word and grow in their relationship with Jesus. Group members are encouraged to utilize the SOAP method in their daily reading of scripture throughout the week and share during the weekly group session (if desired) how they might be seeing, or have seen, God working in their life. In addition to discussion, weekly group sessions will also include video and other supplemental teachings to gain greater insight into God's word and its applicability in one's life today. New group members can join anytime. And if your relationship status is: "It's complicated," feel free to join us.
Serving opportunities will be shared with this group and participants can participate as it works with their schedule and/or interest. No set meeting times or commitments. Emails will be sent out as opportunities become available. Let's radically serve and love our community so that more people will come to know Jesus.
Friday at 6:00 PM
We partner with ICCM Life Center for a promising evening of God ordained encounters! Teams hit the streets of Minneapolis to love our neighbors, build relationships while connecting with others from your campus that are serving in this capacity. You can serve as often as it works for your schedule. Starting at 6pm we meet at the Life Center for prayer and worship (preparing food is also an option). At 7pm we then load up the Life Center buses and drive to various parts of the city, focusing on encampments, bus stops, high traffic areas and shelters. Throughout the night we will have countless opportunities to pray with, love on, and provide essentials to individuals and families while spreading the JOY OF THE LORD. :) We gather back at the Life Center around 9pm to share our experience, testimonies and encouragement. It’s always powerful to see how the Holy Spirit moves both inside us and through the individuals we meet. Hope to see you there!! Here is a document that has a few details: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1E8jARV83iH9BR6IDN13WKSj0ES2QCN3AmgHozPrPRGA/edit?usp=sharing
Embrace Grace provides emotional, practical, and spiritual support to young, single, pregnant women walking through an unplanned pregnancy through a 12 week program. We are excited for you to be part of this Serve Our Community small group! Involvement and time commitment can be determined on an individual basis. If your heart is to serve those during pregnancy, this group is for you!! Different ways you can volunteer: pray, mentor, teach at the small group, provide resources, pass out information, plan baby showers, administrative, provide a meal for small group, be a representative at your campus, etc!
In 2022, Habitat for Humanity will be building 5 new homes in Faribault and River Valley Church is partnering with them to make it happen! Both skilled and unskilled laborers are welcome! (Must be 18+) Signing up for this Small Group will enable you to be contacted whenever we are scheduling a "Build Day" and other updates about the projects and opportunities to serve.
This group is for those who wish to bless others by making a meal. When a family is facing a challenging situation (whether a new baby, health diagnosis, emergency, etc.) and could use some support, my desire is to help provide some meals. When a need arises, I will create a meal train schedule & send it out to all members. You do not need to participate for every need - you can choose what works for you! My goal is to grow the group to easily provide for any need without relying too heavily on any member. This is not a typical small group & will not be meeting together.
Saturday at 9:00 AM
This will be a place for Men of crosstown to be connected to events happening specifically for men, whether it is a serving opportunity, sports activities, or simply a chance to get together as men and sharpen each other. The Idea is that we can grow our ministry here at crosstown by being better connected as a whole. If you have an event you would like to add to the calendar, please share and let's fill up our calendar.
This group exists to provide services to people in the Woodbury community. The projects vary in time/place in homes of widows, veterans, single parents. The team leader will communicate as the needs arise. Your gifts/talents/availability will bless those around us!
Join us as we serve meals with The Union Gospel Mission on the first and third Sundays of each month from 5:00pm-7:00pm! You can park anywhere in our lot, even in spots designated as staff only. You can enter through the Bethel Hotel entrance and our front desk staff will direct you to our kitchen area. Once you arrive in the kitchen, our kitchen staff will give instructions on how to serve the meal. We will provide everything you need, and our kitchen staff will be present the entire time to help and support you. Here are some other things to be mindful of: - Wear closed-toed shoes - Make sure clothing covers the chest, shoulders, underarms, torso, and knees - Hairnets (provided by UGMTC) or hat (brought by the volunteer) - Gloves and aprons (provided by UGMTC) Here is a helpful resource, https://volunteers.ugmtc.org/faq
Together for Good offers tangible opportunities to come alongside vulnerable children and isolated parents. Volunteers offer practical help by hosting children during times of parental crisis, providing respite care for exhausted parents, and surrounding families with ongoing relational support through a network of care. This group will provide awareness and information and will have action steps for those who would like future engagement.
Our small group will meet twice a month. Once to serve our city on Friday evenings with ICCM Life Center on Street Team. The second meeting will be to gather on a Saturday morning for coffee, breakfast, and reading the word together & praying for our city, a missionary in the field abroad, and the people we meet on street team. God called me to start taking notes of the people I met on street team and praying for them regularly. If you are wanting to pray for others and/or share the good news of Jesus. I encourage you to pray about if this group is right for you!
