Library Materials for theSmall Group Ministry Program |
|
Thanks to the efforts of Bob Holmes and Peggy Painton, we are collecting materials for the content of the sessions in the Small Group Ministry Program. They are available in the Receptionist’s office in Neighborhood House for you to read there; and also here, for downloading. The individual items are in Adobe .pdf format.
One of the most important tasks facing each Small Group
is to establish a Covenant among the members. Last summer, the Task Force
worked up a draft Covenant
as a suggestion and aid to the various Groups, which you may
read on a separate page, or
download in .pdf form.
We hope to be developing a lot of materials of our own, but so far, most of
what is listed here comes, with suitable modification, from the very full,
useful SGM session web page
of the First Unitarian Church of San José.
We ask that you respect their copyright and ours by using these materials only for
the purposes for which they are intended. They may not be published or used in any
sort of profit-making manner.
