Hometown Days is just around the corner; this year, MVF's big day of events is Saturday, August 8th.  We have opportunities for lots of people to volunteer at different events during the day.  If you haven’t jumped into serving yet, try it out during Hometown Days!  It’s a fun one-time commitment, whether you’re helping in the kitchen, packing handout items and invites, or walking in the parade! Plus, it’s a great way to get to know others around here- we highly recommend it!  You can see all the open positions and sign up to help by clicking the HERE.

For those grieving the loss of someone close, Griefshare is starting Saturday, August 15th at 9am in our Cedar room.  Griefshare is a free Help and Hope Group where you'll go through a 13-week DVD-driven curriculum and hear from top experts on grief and recovery.  You'll have the opportunity to share what you're experiencing in a group setting and use a workbook during the week for further personal study and journaling.  You can register for Griefshare HERE.  

Who should NOT attend GriefShare: We understand that there are other losses in life that create feelings of grief.  You might be experiencing a job loss, a divorce, estrangement from a child, or the loss of friends because of a move.  This grief is real, but it is not the kind of grief discussed in GriefShare sessions.  We encourage you to ask a pastor, counselor, or church leader for help in finding resources that will be of specific help in your situation.  If you are going through separation or divorce, please consider finding and participating in a DivorceCare program.  

Guys, the next Men's Breakfast is Saturday, August 15th at 8am in the MVF Auditorium.  Bring your Bible for a short study and join us for a decent breakfast and great conversation.

Studying the book of Acts is like watching a documentary about the establishment of the Christian faith--thrilling and suspenseful. The same Holy Spirit who moved passionate followers of Jesus to turn the world upside down with a message of hope is alive and working today. With lessons about the power of the gospel, the work of the Spirit, and how God leads and treasures His bride, this Bible study is a rich opportunity to grow your faith.

MVF's 10-Week study on Acts begins Tuesday, September 15th with morning and evening sessions. The cost is $20 for materials and childcare is available for a small fee. Scholarships are available: email Stephanie@mvfcolorado.com for more information.  You can register below.

The Power on the Plains rally is approaching on September 26th, and this year, we're adding a vendor fair. What's Power on the Plains? It's not your average car show! It also includes motorcycles, airplanes, and tractors along with cars, so if any of that rings your bell, be sure to attend! And if you know of any vendors looking for host shows, please have them fill out the form available on our app or at mvfcolorado.com/home/events. 

Jesus modeled servant leadership by washing His disciple's feet, and we do our best to follow His example and serve those around us. Our goal is for people to worship in one service and serve in another so they don't miss out on attending a weekend service. At MVF, we believe volunteering fills a gap, and that you can volunteer literally anywhere. But serving activates a calling…it helps you discover how God has wired you, helps you identify and develop your gifts, plus, it gives you a place to grow in your servant leadership. With our new third service, we need new people ready to take that leap into discovering who God made them to be, and move towards servant leadership by caring for the people who walk through our doors as their mission. If you’re ready to step up to this great mission, click HERE.
