Starting Point
Tuesdays, Feb. 6-Apr. 3
6:00-8:00pm @ the Fillin’ Station, 630 S. Front St, Mankato

For some of us, our faith journeys began in childhood as a set of beliefs handed to us by a parent, teacher, or pastor. Maybe you developed a framework of faith based on personal experience. Maybe you had no faith at all. Too often, a faith formed in childhood isn’t strong enough to withstand the pressures of adult life. What if you could find a new starting point for faith as an adult? Whether you are new to faith, curious about God, or coming back to church after some time away, Starting Point is a place where your opinions and beliefs are valued, and no question is off limits.

This is an opportunity for all of us to invite a friend, a co-worker, a neighbor, a family member, and do life and faith with one another. Click here to learn more.

LIFEKEYS
Jan. 28-Mar. 18
10:30-11:30am

Join us for eight weeks to discover who God wants you to be. So many of us get involved in activities because it’s what we think we should do, or what is expected. We end up feeling tired, stressed or uninspired. God’s design for each of us is as unique as our fingerprints. During this study, we will discover the one-of-a-kind person your Creator intends you to be. The study includes easy-to-use exercises, inventories, and self-tests to help you unlock your personality and passions. It will help those longing to find or deepen meaning in life, considering volunteer opportunities, contemplating career changes, or desiring to become more useful to God.

Note: We will provide supervised activities for children up to 5th grade until Crossview Kids Sunday programming begins.
