Discipling Others through Small Groups
You’re invited to a new course we’re running at St Jude’s Parkville called Discipling Others through Small Groups. I don’t know if you’ve thought of yourself as a small group leader before or not, but I wonder if you’re open to the possibility?
The aim of the course is to equip you to disciple others through being a small group leader, whether now or in the future.
Small Groups are a critical ministry of our church. They help people grow in their faith, build meaningful relationships of love and encouragement with others, and pray together. So how do you lead a small group to make the most of the discipleship potential? How do people grow in their faith? How do we foster a group environment where people share openly, care deeply and love each other genuinely?
Come along as we look at these questions over 4 weeks, and see how God’s Word equips us to disciple others and lead small groups.
Please note, coming along is not a commitment to being a small group leader. You can come along just to find out a bit more.
Dates:
Sunday afternoons, 3.00-4.30pm
September 15, 22, 29 and October 6th
This course is designed both for experienced small group leaders to build their skills, and for those open to becoming small group leaders in the future, to gain confidence and a solid foundation.
