Alone No More in Mental Health CaregivingThis group is for the woman who cares for their loved one struggling with a mental health condition. If you have felt alone, overwhelmed, and poured out as the caregiver for a mental health condition or crisis, this group is for you. Using “The Forgotten Caregiver of Mental Crisis”, written by the leader of this group, we will approach mental health crisis caregiving from a faith and science perspective. If you care for a loved one with past trauma, PTSD, addiction, suicidal thoughts or suicidal crisis, major depressive disorder, or another mental health condition, come to the group and find connection and support. We will also focus on the caregiver’s needs and support in order to be able to persevere in caregiving without burning out.

ServolutionServolution is more than a name — it’s a movement sparked by Pastor Dino Rizzo’s passion to follow Jesus’ example of loving and serving others with simple, practical acts of kindness. What began as people saying “yes” to everyday serving — picking up trash, mowing a lawn, handing out water — has grown into a revolution of service happening around the world. Dino Rizzo, a pastor with over three decades of ministry experience, co-founded Healing Place Church in Baton Rouge, Louisiana and later the Association of Related Churches (ARC). From that foundation, he launched the Servolution movement and wrote Servolution and Serve Your City — books that chronicle how serving becomes a lifestyle that reaches people where they are. At its heart, Servolution teaches us: Service starts small — even simple acts of kindness reflect Jesus’ love and can open hearts. Serving flows from Jesus’ example — He healed, fed, and cared for the hurting, and invites us to do the same. Serving builds community — When we serve together, we bless others and grow closer to one another and to God. Everyone has a part — You don’t need special skills or lots of resources — just willing hearts. As a small group, Servolution at Heartland Church calls us to follow Jesus’ footsteps in the Indianapolis area — serving neighbors, meeting real needs, and sharing God’s love through tangible acts of compassion throughout our city. Whether we’re fixing a fence, serving a meal, or simply listening to a neighbor’s story, each act becomes part of a larger movement: a revolution of service that reflects God’s heart. This group will meet at all different days and times. The Heartland website makes us choose a specific day, time, and location against our will. We are serving needs when and where they arise.: Saturday @ 11:00 AM

Thrive (Kinzer)Pastor Darryn makes a challenge often when he preaches. He says "give God one year of your life and you won't recognize yourself". If you are not sure you can do a year..... I have a simpler challenge.... one that will help you thrive by understanding the basics of your faith as you accumulate some knowledge, wisdom and disciplines! Give God 11 weeks of your life and you will better understand your faith, see God work in your life and learn some ways to effectively share your faith. Remember, we grow best in community so let's grow together. I'm thinking at the end of 11 weeks you will be ready to go "all in" for a year. If you have been saved for years , this group is for you. If you just got baptized, this group is for you. If you are not sure of your faith, this group is for you. If you just want a solid fellowship centered on Christ, this group is for you.
