We follow the A.C.T.S. model for this event
So we need to have 8 to 10 group leaders and discuss/share the questions (I will let the leaders know as soon as I find 10 people ) in each section. Each worship session will be 10 to 15 min, and each prayer/ sharing session will be also 10 - 15 min.
===============================[]
Small group leaders and how we are dividing the small groups:
We have 9 leaders in total.
An aspect of the fruit of the spirit is assigned to each leader:
Love. Betty C
Joy. Violet
Peace. Sharon
Patience. Emma Q
Kindness. Jeremy
Goodness. Raymond
Faithfulness. Jason
Gentleness. Angela
Self-control. George
As people arrive, Ushers will hand them a prayer card. I have attached a sample in this email.
On each prayer card is a fruit of the spirit. They will find their group according to that. For example, if I get love as my fruit of the spirit, then I will go to Betty's group. They will be given out in order, this way the groups can be evenly distributed.
On this prayer card, they can also leave their name and contact information. On the back, they will write their prayer request for the supplementation section, and can give it to a prayer partner to keep.
