Leader

Kim Kissner

This small group (led by Gayle Cousins - assisted by Kim Kissner-Admin) is for all men and women, for the purpose of learning about, and engaging in, intercessory prayer in a corporate setting. This is for anyone interested in this type of prayer whether you have had very little experience or a lot!! We will all learn from the Holy Spirit, and from one another, as to how to "pray in" the Kingdom of God, and to pray what is on God’s heart! There will be a short teaching at the beginning of each session and the rest of the session will be engaging in prayer. We would love to see you there!! We will meet on the 4th Sunday evening each month, from 6:30 - 8:00 pm - Feb 25, March 24, April 28, May 26, June 23, July 28, Aug 25, Sept 22, Oct 27, Nov 24, & Dec 22nd. Prayer is the foundation for the Church, for healthy growth, strength and unity, and for future revival!!

MenPromise Principle

The Promise Principle | Ben Bertell & Loren Schulz

Apple Valley

Wednesday at 6:30 PM

You are welcome here! This is a "join at anytime" men's group. If you are looking for a deeper connection with God, this group is for you. God desires that we overcome being ruled by our thoughts and feelings, which are highly influenced by our circumstances — family, work, health, or temptation. 2 Peter 1:3–4 tells us that we can actually do this! It comes from learning to respond to God's promises in His Word and through prayer. This is the purpose of The Promise Principle Men's Lifegroups. Whether you’re still exploring faith in Christ, or you have been a Christian for many years, you’ll experience what we believe Jesus meant when He called His disciples to change the world by discovering and responding to His promises, truths, and commands.

M.o.M (Moms on Mission) | Thursdays | Madison Ziegenhagen

Minnetrista

Thursday at 9:00 AM

M.o.M is a small group designed for mothers to come and do life together. We will meet in our homes year round, every other week, taking time off for summer break and winter holidays & each season will bring a new topic or study to work through. Kids are welcome to play while the mom's meet. Our hope is that this is a place to spend time with new and old friends - focusing on authenticity, deep connection, and spiritual growth. During the spring season, we will work through the study "Find Your People" by Jennie Allen, a 7 week series featured on RightNow Media. There is a study guide available on Amazon that is encouraged, but not required. This study is focused on building community - God designed His people to do life together, but we live in a dissociated world that caters to loneliness. Our hope is that this study will break down any walls & provide a community-driven atmosphere for M.o.M moving forward. We can't wait to see you!

The Book of Malachi

Crosstown

Thursday at 7:00 PM

Malachi is the last book of the Old Testament - but not of the Hebrew Bible. Let's take a walk through the book and hear what the prophet had to say to a people who had returned to exile and weren't experiencing what they had expected and blamed Yahweh. This will be a verse by verse study with teaching and plenty of time for discussion and Q&A.

Crosstown Women’s Summer Small Group: Memorize & Multiply

Crosstown

Tuesday at 6:30 PM

GROUP IS NOW FULL: email anghq13@hotmail.com to join the waitlist. Memorize & Multiply Summer Small Group will provide accountability and encouragement to memorize six beloved Bible passages. A study guide from the Daily Grace Co. will be provided that walks you through memorizing one verse at a time while providing background, context and word studies. The goal is not a head knowledge of Scripture that you can recite on demand; the goal is to know God more and dwell on who He is by seeking to know and understand His Word better. As part of the group, you will also be held accountable to multiply the memorization by having six different people in your life memorize one passage of scripture with you. You will pick the people (could be your husband, kids, friends, family, co-worker, neighbor) and keep them accountable to memorize by the date listed below. We will meet every other Tuesday night from 6:30-8:30 pm where we will report back on how it went, discuss the verses we memorized, share prayer requests, pray and sip bubbly's on the deck. Tuesday, May 21: Introductions Tuesday, June 4: The Beatitudes: Matthew 5:1-12 Tuesday, June 18: Christian Love: 1 Corinthians 13: 1-13 Tuesday, July 2: The Armor of God: Ephesians 6:10-20 Tuesday, July 16: The Lord’s Prayer: Matthew 6:5-15 Tuesday, July 30: The Fruit of the Spirit: Galatians 5:16-26 Tuesday, August 13: The Great Commission Matthew 28:18-20 Tuesday, August 27: Celebration

You may hear us say the phrase “Our Heart is Global” often throughout your time at River Valley, but what does it really mean? In Explore, we walk through the great commission that Jesus gave to his followers before He left this earth. Our mandate is to make disciples from every part of the world. Each and every one of us has a part to play in that, whether it is to pray, to mobilize others, to send or to go! This group is for everyone to discover how God wants to use them to accomplish His great commission. We meet from 6:30pm - 8pm. We start September 9th & childcare is included.
