Weekend of June 1+2

Refine your path through radical mentoring

Have you ever been impacted by the wisdom and guidance of a mentor? Whether you have or not, we have all seen the power of a mentor in someone’s life for a season. Radical Mentoring is a great opportunity for you to be personally mentored to grow in your relationship with God and others. Many mentorships fail because of a lack of a mentor, or a lack of a defined start and end time, or a lack of a specific plan or roadmap. Radical Mentoring’s process, mixed with wise leaders in our church, addresses those problems head-on to allow you to engage for a 10-month season with a mentor and a small group. Men, you’ll find more info on Radical Mentoring for Men here. Ladies, click here for more info on Radical Mentoring for Women.


Summer in Journeymen
We all need men in our lives to help with the good, the bad, and everything in between. Guys, join us this summer for an inductive Bible study where you’ll learn a new approach to studying scripture with other men from all walks of life. Every other Saturday morning, 7-8:15 am. Starts June 15. Questions? Email Matt Karasek, mathewade77@gmail.com.

Students: Let’s stay connected this summer!
Raise your hand if you love the slower pace of summer! As life slows down in the warmer months, we have a schedule of Wednesday night youth groups between our camps and other trips. Mark your calendar now for June 19 & 26, July 24 & 31, and August 7 & 14 from 7-9 pm at church. All students are welcome who were in grades 6-12 during the 2023/24 school year. Questions? Email students@fiveoakschurch.org.

Our kids need you this summer!
Summertime in Minnesota is so beautiful! Many of our year-long volunteers will have different vacations and activities that make it difficult for them to serve in their regular roles in Five Oaks Kids. This opens up many opportunities for you to lend a helping hand and help out our current volunteers. Our staff does all the lesson preparation and set-up for you, so you can focus on connecting with kids. If you would like to spend an hour with the cutest Five Oakers of all this summer, please email Kelly Bauman.

Pray for Barb Hawn - Moms in Prayer trip to Mongolia|
