General Information about your group:

• The size of every group should be between 3 and 18 people

• General attendance for most groups is about 70%, which means 1-2 people will tend to miss each time the group meets

• The success of most groups has more to do with the questions that are asked than the content that is studied

• 80% of people stay committed after the first week if they feel welcomed and included

• At their core, people desire 3 main things from community:

1. To belong (“I want to be a part of something bigger than myself.”)

2. To be known (“I want someone to know me.”)

3. To be loved (“I want someone to accept me.”)
