You will build community, understand how God made you, and dive deeper into your walk with Jesus. We can’t wait to meet you! 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. This group will meet in person for 4 weeks in January. We can't wait to meet you!

Each week we will share a meal together as we discuss our topic for the night. Everyone is welcome and no questions are off-limits! Alpha will begin at 6:00 pm and go until 8:00pm with child care provided. This group starts on Monday, February 5th, in the Main Auditorium.

Take Ground SPANISH | David + Ingrid

Monday at 6:30 PM

This group is designed to get into God's Word, grow in your relationship with Jesus and connect to others. We will read the Bible together following River Valley's SOAP method. We can't wait to get to know you! We will start the group with the "Take Ground" study guide that is inspired by this years vision that Pastor Rob shared in January. We believe that we are going to end the year strong as we take ground as a church and see you take ground personally!

CTY Men’s Bible Study | Dave Ritzman & Aaron Overfors

City

Wednesday at 6:30 PM

This is an interactive Men’s Bible and discipleship group where men grow in Christ and His Word thru community with one another. We cover books in the Bible related to aspects of a man’s life such as his purpose, roles, relationships, lifestyle, gifts, workplace, money, sex, communications and more! We will learn how to read, study, and apply the Bible so we learn Truth, walk by The Spirit and hear God's voice for ourselves. It will also be a time of prayer, laughter, and fellowship with every few months engaging in a special activity (e.g., have a meal, go to a game, etc.) as well as serve our church and city. We hope you’ll join us in doing life together in Christ!
