Pastoral Groups

I am excited to share with you the latest news from our elders and deacons meeting, which took place on Tuesday 10th September 2019. 

As spiritual leaders, it is our deepest desire for you to receive good and healthy spiritual support. As you can imagine it is very difficult for one person to be always connected with everyone. it's becoming more and more difficult to be able to prevent problems as well as be well informed when issues arise.
 
There is a story in the Bible that teaches us a great deal on leadership. Moses was leading a great number of people and he was trying to deal with it on his own. When his father in law visits, he notices the strain of this task on Moses. Jethro's advice was simple: share the load with others. 
So, this is what we are intending to do. 

At our last meeting, the elders and deacons have received a list of 10 people. They will be in contact with you and from time to time they will check on how you are.  The idea is that communication stays open all the time and the pastors will be easily informed when there is a need for a visit or some pastoral care. 

I pray that this way, you will feel more cared for and that you truly belong to this family of believes.

17 Moses’ father-in-law replied, “What you are doing is not good. 18 You and these people who come to you will only wear yourselves out. The work is too heavy for you; you cannot handle it alone. 19 Listen now to me and I will give you some advice, and may God be with you. You must be the people’s representative before God and bring their disputes to him. 20 Teach them his decrees and instructions,and show them the way they are to live and how they are to behave. 21 But select capable men from all the people—men who fear God, trustworthy men who hate dishonest gain—and appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties and tens. 22 Have them serve as judges for the people at all times, but have them bring every difficult case to you; the simple cases they can decide themselves. That will make your load lighter, because they will share it with you. 23 If you do this and God so commands, you will be able to stand the strain, and all these people will go home satisfied.”
Exodus 18: 17 -23
