LifeSupport

What an amazing night we had together last Thursday! More than 60 leaders showed up as we unveiled our new strategy for supporting Community Group leaders…we call it LifeSupport. “LifeSupport is a community of leaders, gathering to connect, encourage, and resource with one another as they grow in life and leadership.” We have decided to move away from a traditional coaching structure, and are embracing a relational model that emphasizes collaboration among leaders.

Feel in the dark as a CG leader? We want to see CG leaders better connect with one another, the small group ministry, and the overall ministry and leadership of LifePoint. As leaders on the front line, we want you to have increased access and lines of communication to and from leadership so you can lead your group effectively.

Feeling isolated as a CG leader? Leading a small group can be discouraging at times, especially when you feel like you’re in it alone. There is great encouragement when you realize that there are other leaders who have experienced or are experiencing what you are. LifeSupport is designed to fuel the fire, fan the flame and to continue to inspire you as a leader.

You help people on their journey, who’s helping you on yours? We want you to be resourced so you can grow in both life and leadership. LifeSupport groups will be the primary vehicle used to continue to equip and train existing CG leaders.

More to come.
Since all of our CG leaders weren’t there for the big unveiling, we will be providing follow-up presentations to be sure everyone gets the necessary information. We’ll be in touch as to when these are taking place.
