Thank you for leading a LifeGroup!

LifeGroup members grow spiritually together and encourage each other through the highs and lows of life. That's why we're thrilled that you want to step out in faith to build the relationships God has called us to build! Your LifeGroups Team is excited to share more about this valuable role and support you with the right resources and relationships.

Group Name*

Your group name should be intuitive, inviting, and down to earth. It should match the purpose of the group and should appeal to people who are not familiar with Life.Church or the group. Your group name should make people feel included, so when choosing a name be sure to avoid using:

• Words or acronyms that people may not understand

• “Churchy” words or clichés

• Wording that really belongs in the group description (such as “35+ Singles")

Many ongoing LifeGroups choose to use the leader’s name as the group name, which is fine. A name such as “The Hardys' Group” is acceptable, but “The Hardys” is not because it’s less intuitive to someone new to the idea of LifeGroups.

Group Description*

The description you write for your group will either draw a person to connect with the group or become a turn-off, depending how it is written. Put thought into your description so that it is warm and informative. Add a personal touch and avoid wording that people don’t understand (so readers don’t feel like outsiders).

The description should:

• Clarify for the reader what type of person your group might appeal to

• Be inviting to people who don’t have a church background

• Include a sentence or two about the purpose of the group or what you’d like to accomplish

• If applicable, explain the content the group uses (such as curriculum or discussion of Craig’s message)

• Clarify how the group handles childcare (if the group is open to adults who may have children)
