What will happen if we don’t go to two CG’s?
When students get back, some students AND adults will probably turn away due to being unable to simply find a place to park or sit.
You can argue that those who are really interested will find a way to be there, but I think it is wise to remove as many obstacles as possible for seekers.
What will happen if we don’t go to two CG’s?
You can also argue that our CG is not our main thing, but LG’s are and so what is the big deal. This fails to take into account that
many people are won to Christ or into community via CG attendance.
It also fails to take into account the power of the CG to generate a sense of momentum and vision beyond one’s circle.
What will happen if we don’t go to two CG’s?
You can also argue that trying to do more than one CG will put too much strain on volunteers and leaders. I think this argument places
convenience over growth & vision I think we will all step up to the
challenge if we get the vision
What will happen if we don’t go to two CG’s?
I believe we are getting to a point where not multiplying our CG in some way is basically deferring to a no-growth mentality.
Can we really be ok with that before the Lord?
What is it going to take to go to two CG’s?
Ultimately we would love to have KidsLIFE for every CG, but we have to start where we are at. Full KL for one CG & nursery for the
other Going to need other volunteers
Setup & Tear down KL Music & Sound Video (slides)
When?
Either when KSU starts (Aug. 25) or wait until later in September
Possible CG sample times: Sunday @ 9am & 11am Sunday @ 10am & 5pm
What are we asking of you? Prayerfully consider how you can put
your shoulder to the plow Offer constructive ideas Remember this is an opportunity for all
of us to grow in self-giving love for the sake of the Gospel
Pray for the elders & staff to have wisdom & courage
Whatever is decided, jump in there an give it a go!
