Participating
Having many ways where people can find their place
Plug people in
Do people in your church community know they have a place and feel ‘plugged in'? Where can a parent of a family participate and serve in church life, so they begin to feel like they are part of something bigger?
Make space
Are there spaces that would help include newer families and position them on the journey towards transformation?
Prioritise relational connection
Where can you make introductions? Why not introduce those who are new to others who are embedded in church life so they can build friendship. Sometimes this is socially and other times it’s getting stuck into team and serving alongside each other.
Be a passionate people
Different passions bring different people alive. Do you know what makes people thrive? Can you connect those who share common interests?
