HOW TO UPDATE YOUR LIFEGROUP ROSTER ON PCO
Adding to your roster is easy! Be sure to keep your roster updated throughout the semester.
CLOSING IN PRAYER (A few tips):
Close with prayer & encouragement over the group.
As a general rule, ask members to share specific prayer requests in GroupMe. Not everyone will feel comfortable sharing prayer requests publicly.
Pray "GM Style": everyone prays aloud at once, and when the prayers die down, the leader closes the prayer.
It is not recommended that you go around the room asking for each person's prayer requests. This can take a LOT of time, and not everyone ha something to share aloud.
If you have an active GroupMe, you may choose to create a separate GroupMe just for prayer requests, so they don't get lost in the announcements & banter.
