Small Group Etiquette
Be Committed
Attend regularly so you can build relationships with your small group and get the most out of the lessons.
Be Prepared
Do your homework so you’ll be ready to participate in the small group discussion.
Be On Time
Plan to arrive a little early so you can enjoy the food and visit with friends before class begins. After the lecture, quickly transition to your small group room.
Know Who You Are
Actively participate in your small group by talking AND listening. If you tend to be a talker, avoid dominating the conversation. If you tend to stay quiet, look for opportunities to share your thoughts with the group.
Support Your Group Members
Find ways to encourage and build up the women in your group, especially if one of them is going through difficult life circumstances. Avoid controversial topics, such as politics, religious traditions, or cultural differences.
Don’t Gossip
If you have a concern, please share it with your group leader, co-leader, or the ministry leader. We are always looking for ways to improve and appreciate your feedback.
