We worship and follow a God that is present, real, and with us. He is active and involved in each of our lives. The question isn’t is He there; it's more, "Are you listening and willing to follow?"

If you think back, there are probably times in your life that you thought you knew the direction you were heading. And then God intervened. Suddenly you changed direction, followed, and ended up in a different place than you expected.  At MVF, we have started to call these intersections. Each intersection has its own story: a message of how God acted in your life and how he changed your direction to follow him.

Our Intersections class gives you some guidance on investigating your intersections. The outcome of the class is for you to be able in 90 seconds to tell someone one of your intersections with God in a concise, engaging way to start a faith conversation.

The next Intersections Class is Friday, January 30 at 6:30 pm in our Balsam room. There's no sign up; you can just show up.

To get ready for the class:

• Before the class, pray and think through a time in your life when God changed your direction. It could be when you found faith or a major life decision or event.
• Come to the class! Have fun and work on your intersection story
• Receive personal coaching on your story after the class
• Be open to maybe being videotaped while telling your story sometime after the class. These videos may be used for future intersection classes, Sunday mornings or other chances to share with our faith family God’s work in our lives

Come to Lunch...on us!  New around here? We'd love to meet you! Bring your family along for lunch with some of the MVF Pastors, Elders, and Staff. It's a great time for them to get to know you, and for you to learn a little about MVF and ask any questions you might have. So that we have enough to eat, please RSVP HERE or stop by either Welcome Kiosk or the Info Center and let them know you'll be joining us!

Our next Welcome Lunch is Sunday, February 1 at 11:45 in our Aspen Room (down the East/Children's Hallway. We're looking forward to it!

Griefshare is a Help and Hope Group for those who have lost someone close. Through a 13-week DVD-driven curriculum, we’ll walk alongside you as we hear top experts on grief and recovery subjects and then discuss what we watched and what you are experiencing.  During the week, you’ll have the opportunity to use your workbook for further personal study of the grieving process and help sort out your emotions through journaling.  

Our next Griefshare session begins Saturday, February 7 at 8:30am and continues for 13 weeks through Saturday, May 4.

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.

It's a simple kindness we practice at MVF to make our first time guests as comfortable as possible. We choose and remember to Park Farther Out in the parking lot (if you're physically able) so visitors and those needing a closer parking space can easily find one, and then Sit In, meaning you’d sit towards the center of the row in the auditorium to allow others to find seats more easily once the service has started and avoid the awkward "step over" as they try to move to seats in the center. Thanks for showing love by doing this!
