It is exciting to be part of a church and Sunday school that is blessed with numeric growth. In response to this growth, we must make plans to stay connected. Providing a sense of community is part of the function of Sunday school. The best way to handle growing bigger is to simultaneously grow smaller.
To that end, the Couples Connection Sunday school class is organized into groups of couples. The number of groups is determined by the overall size of the class members and participants. A couple will be added to a group once they attend three consecutive Sundays. You can be group/class members without joining Richland Creek Community Church. Currently, we have 7 groups for the participating couples. No group will ever have more than 6 couples. This structure will allow the class to care for 42 family units.
Members of a group are primarily responsible to pray and care for one another. It is very important that each couple make an effort to get to know the other group members. We ask that you make note of any group member that is not in class on Sunday morning and contact them during the week. Effective contact may be made by a phone call, email, or snail mail. If a group member misses three consecutive Sundays, PLEASE BRING THIS TO MY ATTENTION!!!!
In addition to connecting and caring for one another, groups may also choose to do other things. Some groups may be interested in social activities or play days for children. Others may enjoy movies or sports events. How your individual group interacts is up to the members.
Groups will be reorganized as growth dictates.
Looking for a place to meet new friends, delve deeper into God's Word, and do ministry together? Then join us on Sundays at 9:00 A.M. in the Couples Connection Class at Richland Creek. ~ We are a group of couples that love one another and care for each other. Whether you've been married for a week or a decade, have children or not, we'd love to have you join us!
