| | So, I've been meaning to post for a while now, but haven't quite found the time.
Hmm what happened since last post? Auditions, first small group, and callbacks pretty much.
Auditions/callbacks: Stressful! This year was pretty hard. It was hard to turn so many people down, but necessary.
And we still don't have enough people yet. We're probably going to have to have another audition, just for guys. Cuz we're completely outnumbered by the girls now, and girls' voices carry farther.
Small Group: Like I've been telling people, it didn't go as well as I wish it did, but it went better than I thought it would =D
Only one new person, but I'm thankful for that one person. It's definitely better than no new people. I'm following up with new students again over email (just sent it a while ago, actually), so hopefully this week we'll have more!
So what'd we do?
I cast my vision for the group - That this would be a community of brothers and sisters that support each other spiritually and emotionally. That we would help each other become better disciples of Jesus and that we would challenge/encourage each other to grow in our faith and reach out to others.
Icebreakers/get to know you stuff
Inductive Bible study of 2 Corinthians.
We're studying Luke this year actually, but....I wasn't able to go to the small group leaders meeting cuz of auditions. And that's where they went over the first passage. So, I decided to pick my own. It was in 2 Corinthians 5 where it says "the old has gone, the new has come". I just thought it fit cuz we're starting a new school year and all =]
And yeah so I didn't actually have time to prepare it til the day of, so it was a little less organized than I would've liked, and the questions weren't as deep as I wanted them to be.
But I guess for the first small group meeting, it went pretty well.
This year is already getting a little crazy....ahhh!! a crapload of reading. and then leadership positions in 2 different organizations. craaaaaazyyyy.
but i am looking forward to a new year =D |
