What Happens After the Weekend?
One of the most important parts of the Great Banquet is the follow-up. Although the weekend lasts only three days, you are invited to use its lessons for the rest of your life. After attending the Great Banquet you are challenged to:
- Strengthen your own spiritual life through study and active congregational participation; and
- Strive to become an active disciple of Jesus Christ in the world through your church.
To assist you in your discipleship, the Great Banquet events offer specific opportunities:
First, reunion groups of three to five people meet weekly to examine their goals of spiritual growth and to encourage one another to a life of discipleship.
Second, there will be oppotunities to assist in future Great Banquet weekends through prayer, support and team involvement.
Third, you are made aware of community needs through a newsletter of other Great Banquet weekends, both locally and regionally.
