Think Multiplication:

By Bobby Reed
As God continues to bless our church family with many new families the best way to get them connected is to make room for them!
How can we make room?
1. Open up your group if it's not very large
2. Start new groups

How do we start new groups?
1. begin talking about multiplication to your group
2. identify a potential leader
3. ask this person to be your apprentice leader
4. develop the new leader

How do we develop the new leader?
1. You lead a group meeting, they watch, you meet up with your apprentice and talk about it.
2. You lead, they help, you meet up with your apprentice and talk about it.
3. They lead, you help,you meet up with your apprentice and talk about it.
4. They lead, you watch, you meet up with your apprentice and talk about it.
5. They start a new group when you both agree they are ready.

Are you still wondering how you can help your group think multiplication and unleash new leaders? Email your campus minister and we will help you through this.

Ready, Set, GO!!

Another group season is ready to take off!
Be sure you're connecting with all of those in your group, especially those who are new.  Make sure they know when and where you are meeting.

Keep inviting!  If your group is not full, keep inviting others to join you.  We have many in our FCC family that are just waiting to be asked.

Make sure your group info is correct on the website.  Make sure everyone is on your list that is supposed to be on your list.

PRAY!  Pray that God does great things this season as our groups study God's word and we each grow in our faith.  Pray for each of your group members by name.
