What's next???

Summer groups are off and running!  This is our first time to do a Summer Season.  Numbers are lower, as we had predicted, since everyone is out and about over the summer.  We have seen a good number of first timers jump in though, so that's really cool! 
If your group isn't meeting over the summer, be sure to keep in touch with your groupies. 

What's next?  That's a good question.  Here's the answer: FALL!
The Fall season will be here soon and that means we need to prepare by raising up some leaders.  We still have close to 300 adults who have not plugged into a group.  (Remember, when I say "Group" I'm referring to both Life Groups and Classes)  But, honestly, if they all signed up we would have nowhere to put them.  We need more leaders!  We are striving to create a culture of Leaders raising up Leaders.

One of the first things Jesus did in his public ministry was to identify and develop future leaders who would advance his kingdom and mission (Mark 1:16-20; John 1:35-51). Paul modeled this as well, investing in emerging leaders like Timothy and Titus, among others.

Who is ready to get off the bottle?
Who in your group are you raising up to take the Lead?
