It’s Time to Launch One: An Apprentice, an On-Campus Group, and an Off-Campus Group

Monday 9th March, 2009

There are several actions essential for Sunday School growth. I have written about these actions in many, many blog entries over the last three years. Here are six of them: Explosive Sunday School Growth, 5 Goals for Sunday School Growth This Year, Plan for Your Sunday School to Grow This Year, Part 1, Plan for Your Sunday School to Grow This Year, Part 2, Set God-Sized Goals for Sunday School Growth, and Sunday School Class Growth Is Spelled W-O-R-K, Part 1 (and other five parts).

Two of those essential actions are apprenticing new teachers and starting new classes. During March and April, I will be making six stops around Kentucky as part of the Launch One tour which will focus on starting new classes and groups as one of the most effective ways to strengthen and grow a Sunday School/small groups ministry. Join me for a Launch One tour stop near you to learn . . .

  • the importance of starting new classes and small groups, essential steps for starting classes/groups that multiply, keys for training an apprentice, and why off-site groups are needed.
Take steps this year to launch at least one group and grow your Sunday School by 10%, 20%, or even more! The Launch One tour is for pastors, Sunday School directors, ministers of education, Sunday School teachers/workers and potential teachers, and small group leaders. Planning time will be provided for church teams, so be sure to bring your calendars.
