Welcome Home is your first step at River Valley Church. You were created for a purpose, and we want to help you discover that purpose! You will build community, understand how God made you and dive deeper into your walk with Jesus. We can’t wait to meet you! This is a 4-week small group. Once Welcome Home is complete, we encourage you to find another small group where you can continue growing in your faith as you build friendships.

The Promise Principle | Jesse Johannesen & Damian Uecker

Shakopee

Thursday at 7:00 AM

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. Click here to read more about The Promise Principle and see our weekly reading plan: rivervalley.org/promise-principle. This group meets Thursday mornings from 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM at Caribou Coffee in Savage (7745 Egan Dr, Savage, MN 55378)

Torah Bible Study

Crosstown

Thursday at 7:00 PM

As Christians, we often have a difficult time making sense of the Old Testament. One of the best ways to become familiar with this is to read and discuss the text in community. This Bible study is simply to come together and read, engage, and discuss the first five books of the Old Testament (the Torah).

Meals Ministry

Apple Valley

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.

The Art of Hearing the Voice of God

Crosstown

Sunday at 8:00 AM

Our time together will consist of hearing the voice of God, deepening our relationship with the Holy Spirit, and understanding what it means to walk in the prophetic. We will meet on Sunday mornings at church in the conference room at 8 am. I'm excited as we join together as the body of Christ to go deeper and seek a greater understanding of what it means to hear God's voice.
