Small Groups Serving

Once the Fourth of July is over, it seems like summer is over - and we begin to plan for fall and the school year, and we think about what our life group/small group is going to tackle for the year.  My life group, which meets 2 times/month, plans to study the book of Job this fall. Yikes!

Easter's mission statement is "to grow in faith and carry on the work of Jesus Christ." Life groups are a perfect way to do both these things.  Sometimes, however, I think we forget about that last part - carrying on Christ's work.  

Here's a challenge for you - Brainstorm with your life group some ways to serve the wider community during this program year.  If you are at a loss, ask an Easter staff person or check the website - there are always ways to serve listed there.  And tell us, through commenting on this blog, what your group plans to do!  We'd love to hear it!
