Making Room For More!

What would you do if someone new came to join your family?  It may be the baby coming home from the hospital or the niece moving in for the summer.  What would you do?  I guess there's two options.  You can ignore them and assume that they will find their way around the house, find food, get clothes, find a place to sleep, etc.  Not sure how long that new family member would stick around or survive.  Or the other option, you could prepare for their arrival with a place to sleep, clothes, food, etc.  I'm thinking most of us would go with option two.
I'm not sure if you've noticed, but we've added a few more family members around here at FCC.  We continue to see steady growth, even through the summer!  The question is, are we going to ignore them or make room for them?  Let me answer that... We have to make more room in our groups for our growing family.  I'm not talking about building buildings, we have all the room we need in our homes!
We do need more leaders.  Many of our current groups have reached capacity.  We need new leaders to start new groups so we can accommodate new people.
What leader can take over your group so you can start a new one?  What leader can you send out from your group to start another one?
The goal is not to see how long your group can last.  The vision is to have multiplying groups who are multiplying leaders.  Your group needs to know the vision from day one and continually be reminded so that they can share that same vision.
Now, let's make room!
