DCE, Jim Anderson from St. Michael’s in Bloomington, MN will also be a guest speaker. Jim has 20 plus years of experience directing Small Groups for both adults and youth. King of Kings very own, Rev. Mark Halvorson will also speak about what’s at the heart of Small Group Ministry and why it’s important to congregational life.
