SUMMARY:Midweek Summer Worship
DESCRIPTION:Save the Dates for Summer Midweeks 2026!\nWednesdays\, June 24 – August 12 \nJoin us for a summer of delicious food\, immersion in nature\, warm fellowship\, and inspiring worship! Each midweek begins with a chef-prepared meal\, followed by an engaging nature talk\, and concludes with a worship service featuring Mount Olivet pastors and musicians.    \nThis year’s theme\, Set Free\, Sent Forth\, traces one of Scripture’s most enduring promises — that in Christ\, we are liberated from everything that holds us captive. This freedom is not something we achieve or work toward; it is a gift of grace\, received through faith in the God who has already acted decisively on our behalf. Yet God’s liberation always has a direction and a purpose. We are freed for relationship\, for mutual care and flourishing\, for the full life God intended for all of us from the very beginning. And here is the beautiful paradox: the Christian set free does not simply walk away unencumbered. Freed from the tyranny of self-justification\, we find ourselves joyfully\, gratefully bound to one another — not by compulsion or duty\, but by love. \nCome spend your summer evenings renewed by these stories of liberation\, the beauty of God’s creation\, and the joy of community.   \nCost: $20 for dinner & program | $10 for bus/van transportation (from 7500 York\, West\, and Minneapolis Campus) | Best Value: Attend all eight weeks for a one-time purchase of $120 ($180 with transportation) \nSCHEDULE\n4:15pm Bus departs Mpls Campus\n4:30pm Van departs West Campus\n4:45pm Bus departs 7500 York \n5:30-6:30pm Dinner\n6:30-7pm Nature Talk\n7:15pm Worship\n8pm Busses Depart \nRegistration Links \nJune 24 with Pastor Lose\nJuly 1 with Pastor Kalland \n  \nPay for each week separately or attend all eight weeks for a discounted\, one-time purchase.

SUMMARY:Embrace Your Light
DESCRIPTION:Embrace Your Light is a gentle invitation to return to yourself\, an immersive fall retreat designed to support deep reconnection and renewal as the season shifts and life’s pace softens before winter’s return. This experience weaves together mindfulness\, movement\, Reiki\, creative expression\, and meaningful reflection. Whether you seek clarity\, healing\, or simply space to breathe\, you’ll be held in a supportive environment that encourages you to release what no longer serves you and reconnect with your inner strength and light. Surrounded by the quiet beauty of late October\, we invite you into intentional stillness\, nature\, and community\, creating space to slow down\, realign\, and move forward feeling grounded\, calm\, and clear. \nThis is a non-MOCRC retreat intended for anyone (18+) who is seeking time and space to pause\, breathe and reflect. Individuals can find registration information here or they may reach out to Lindsey Cornell at connect@lindseycornell.com or 612-520-1837 or to Justina Cloutier at cedarnsoul@gmail or 651-347-6627.
