Churchwide Life Group Campaign

For the first time, every Life Group at Cornerstone will study the same thing together for 6 weeks this Fall! Our desire is to create unity in our Church community, and encourage people who are not a part of a Life Group to join a group. To do this, we want to start 100 new Life Groups!

The study will include The Me I Want to Be DVD (preview here) along with a Study Guide written by Cornerstone Staff. These materials will be provided free for each group and can be picked up at Converge. Individuals or groups can also purchase a copy of the book The Me I Want to Be to read along with the study, this is recommended but not required to participate.

Here are the details:
Church-wide Fall Life Group Campaign
Sept 12 – Oct 21 (6 weeks) :: The Me I Want to Be by John Ortberg

There will be a preview of The Me I Want to Be DVD on Tues Aug 23 at 6:30pm in U1 for any new or existing leaders.

We will talk more about this at the next Converge: Life Group Leaders Gathering on Sunday August 21st 1-3pm in the Chapel. Don't miss out, it will be a great time of good food, connecting with other Life Group Leaders and being developed and equipped as leaders: Register Here.

Please be in prayer for our Life Group Campaign this Fall. I believe God is going to do some amazing things in transforming us together!

I hope to see you at Converge on Aug 21st and I hope you will join us for this first ever church-wide campaign, it’s going to be great!
