Family Time, Gather & Eat
Eating together is the secret sauce to creating deep and fun community. So grab a bite to eat - it doesn’t have to be fancy - order pizza, chips and guac, or a potluck dinner are all great options. If a meal is too much then go simple. Put the kettle on and have tea and dark chocolate.
Curriculum
This is our time to dig in deep to what God wants to teach us, and to grow together into the likeness of Jesus. This time together will be beautiful if everyone leans in, commits to being safe listeners, and refuses to be anything other than vulnerable in our heart posture before God. It is in this place we must humbly come before God and say, “Lord I want to meet with you, I want you to change me, and I want you to do it alongside and in the midst of this community of brothers and sisters”.
Prayer
- Rejoice - Pause and rest in God’s presence. What can we celebrate from this past week? Where have you seen God’s goodness in your life or in the lives of others? Share and give thanks together.
- Ask - Bring what’s surfaced, your needs, longings, and questions, and surrender them to God in trust. Pray for one another and for God’s kingdom to come in these areas.
Tip: Designate one person to write down these prayer requests and post them in your Church Center group chat so we can keep praying together throughout the week.
