Does something seem missing in your life since the first Gateway group ended? Is your small group or Growth group about to end for the summer and you wonder “What am I going to do with myself?” Are you new to Soul Purpose and looking for new or additional ways to plug into the group?
Well, then fret no more! Our next mixed group study, dubbed “Summer Gateway” (really creative,huh?), will be starting Wednesday, June 4th! In addition to providing a place to keep you off the streets (for about 10 weeks, anyway), this new study will also help you to learn more about your spiritual giftings and how to use them in serving the Lord, with a good mix of teaching and discussion and service opportunities in our community.
We have chosen the book “Love In Action - Experiencing the Joy of Serving”, part of the InterActions Small Group Series of books from Bill Hybels as the text for our study. The leadership team is also in the process of setting up service opportunities with a variety of community groups and ministries. Our hope is that through this mix of teaching and occasional service opportunities, we will expose ourselves to different ways of serving the kingdom, which will help us to grow in new ways in using our spiritual gifts and gaining confidence in our giftings.
By the way, if you would like to get your copy of the book now, you can get it brand new at abunga.com or christianbook.com for around $6 plus tax and shipping.
We hope to see all who can make it Wednesday nights this summer! More details to come as they are made known…
