Synergy Student Group Leader Info & Expectations
Thank you all so much for being willing to use your MANY GIFTS to serve as student group leaders at Synergy. I am blown away that we have so many Seniors and Juniors I can trust to lead and serve the other students in our group. I wanted to give you some more info on how this will work. This is a work in progress, so we can always make changes as we go.
How Small Groups Will Work:
Lessons will include about 20 minutes of teaching followed by small groups.
Groups will split by gender and grade. Each group will have a few student leaders and adult leaders.
We have multiple student leaders in each group so groups can continue even if somebody has to miss AND so groups can split if they get too big.
If someone came with a friend in a different group, they are welcome to join their friend’s group.
If your group reaches around 10 people, please split into two groups.
Student leaders will lead the discussion, adults are there to help and maybe answer a few direct questions.
We will have assigned spots in the sanctuary so everyone knows where to go (please don’t ask to leave the sanctuary with your group).
Try to finish praying together by 8:10 PM. If your conversation continues after that, that’s okay — just try not to keep parents waiting.
Phone bins will be available when we first enter the sanctuary. Adult leaders can take them to the group area when we split up.
Things to Do Ahead of Time
We will use the Planning Center app to know who is able to make it each week. Please send me your email address if you don’t already use Planning Center.
You will get small group questions on Tuesdays. Please read these over and intentionally pray for your small group!
