Well, I hope you had an amazing summer, and some good time off at the end. Fall is upon us, and it's time to get our groups rolling! What an exciting time of year for us! Personally, I'm so excited to meet up with the returning members from our group, as well as get some new faces involved in our lives. Speaking of new, we've got some new changes coming your way, but don't worry. I think you are really going to like what comes next.
Weekly Email
Every Thursday you will receive an email from me, which will contain the Lifeline for the upcoming week, as well as a link to for your small group report.
- Lifeline Updates
o You will also notice that the Lifeline has a new look, and slightly new format with questions on the second page.
o Please feel free to give us feedback as we continue to work to provide something that meets the many different needs of the groups we have.
o As always, remember that the Lifelines are simply a tool, and you are more than welcome to tweak, change, or ignore any portion of it if it does not provide the assistance you need.
- Small Group Report Update
- No longer will be receiving a reminder to fill out your report the night of your meeting. THIS WEEKLY EMAIL WILL SERVE AS YOUR REMINDER.
- Simply click on this link Small Group Report- Urbana - Formstack (included in each weekly email), fill out the report, and click submit at the bottom. VERY SIMPLE!
- We ask that you list everyone that attends by name for at least the first month so that we can make sure your rosters are up to date on our end.
- In an effort to save money, we have decided to discontinue our use of Churchteams, the old database and reporting system. I have made all your groups "inactive" and you should no longer be receiving report reminders. We will be canceling that within the next month or so.
Thank you so much for serving as a leader this Fall. You are a true gift to our church!
