Thank You!
I just wanted to officially thank you again for leading out with ROOTED in your group. I pray you’re already being blessed as you personally journey together.
As a reminder each week, plan to spend about 20-30 minutes reviewing the weekly email, engaging the material here, and considering your specific group as you plan your time with your facilitator’s guidebook.
Start today praying for what God would do in the life of your group. God meets us individually and then when we come together there is awesome unity and growth that takes place. Pray for the spiritual growth, humility and boldness of the group as they journey together.
A Few Things to Remember
Objective:
The main goals is to set a safe and fun environment from the very start. Share your excitement and set the bar high. If we set it high, people will meet it!
Preparation:
Read the FACILITATORS GUIDE week 1. It has ice breakers, a plan for your group time and all the details for your night. NOTE: We will not be kicking off as a large group as the facilitators guide outlines, so plan the entire group time as yours to set the tone.
Establish the logistics:
Give them clarity on when to start reading the daily devotions. They should start the next day on Week 2 readings.
Plan ahead for a longer group time for the prayer experience.
Plan this week or next a date that works for the Serving Experience
Establish how this group will communicate outside of group time. Texting? Email?
Attendance:
You will receive an email about an hour before your group starts asking you to provide attendance. You can click on this after you group is done - before you leave your venue, and record who was present. PLEASE do this right away. Follow up with those not present and know that I will be tracking this because the heart behind it is care for people and not letting anyone slip. That is what the "church" as a family is all about! Tell me if I need to remove anyone or change your group list.
