Worship-Based Prayer by Reaiah CuberoDevelop a more intimate relationship with God through life giving, Scripture-fed, Spirit-led, Worship-based prayers. Connection is Vital by Maricar De Silva & Mercy BelenoHave you ever stepped into a church hoping to be accepted and feel like you belong there? Did you want to get involved in ministries or church activities but just didn’t quite know how to do so? Well, we invite you to join us in this workshop because being connected and feeling connected is a natural human desire that most long for, and which our churches must acknowledge and minister to because God created us for community and connection is vital! This workshop will help you: Learn how to develop a connect ministry at church so people feel welcomed, loved, and connected. Learn how to use the RISE (relate-invite-share-embrace) concept in connecting with and ministering to those God brings to your church.Learn how to recognize the gifts and talents of those God brings to your church so you can help link them to ministry opportunities and/or activities. Learn to develop a continuous follow up plan for those God has brought to your church but may have gone astray or missed some services, ministry opportunities, and/or church activities so you can pray for and reach out to them.God created us for community and when people are welcomed, loved, and connected in church, they will feel a sense of belonging, a sense of importance, a sense of identity within the body of the church. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. - John 15:12 Be devoted to one another in love.
