生命小组
以基督为中心的社区是帮助我们作为基督的跟随者成熟的基础。生命小组 ，是你在小组环境中联系的一种方式，建立有意义的关系，并在一个支持性的环境中增长你的信仰。
Life Group?
我们认为生命小组 是威灵顿事工的核心。上帝不希望我们中的任何人踽踽独行--我们需要彼此。生活小组是您在亲密和支持的环境中建立有意义的关系、增长信仰的理想场所。它将帮助你参与和理解主日的信息，也是一个安全的地方，让你在属灵成熟的过程中提出问题。您还将有机会彼此服侍，在困难时期相互支持，并在本地和海外分享基督的爱。
什么是生命小组 ？
一个生命小组 ，由6人或更多人组成，每周聚会，学习和应用圣经，祈祷，分享我们的生活，并服务他人，使我们有能力为耶稣基督的使命而生活。每个小组由一个受过训练的领袖领导，并希望有一个共同领袖。一个典型的会议持续一个半小时，无论是面对面的还是在线的。这是一个分享和共同生活的社区。
为什么要加入生活小组？
- 与其他信徒聚集在一起，体验与耶稣和彼此的交通。
- 成长，越来越多地亲身经历耶稣，学习如何开展祂的事工。
- 去完成耶稣使人作门徒的使命。
Life Group Member Commitment
for Christians
生命小组 中的每个人在信仰之旅中都处于不同的位置，但我们致力于实现相同的目标。
COMMIT to participate in Life Group gatherings (Hebrews 10:23-25).
Praise God that He gives us the opportunity to grow in community! We recognize the importance and privilege of building each other up so we do our best to do so.
COMMIT to growing to love God more (Matthew 22:36-40).
Praise God that He loves us so much that He sent His own Son to die on the cross to save us (Romans 5:6-8). He also wants us to love Him back. In our Life Groups, we grow in our love of God through sermon studies, group discussions, examples set by other members, and applying what we have learned.
COMMIT to growing to love others more (Matthew 22:36-40; John 13:34).
Praise God that His love moves us to love the people around us just as He loves us! Love can manifest in many different ways, such as praying for each other, making an effort to regularly show up, sharing encouragements, or dropping off a hot meal. We can put our love in practice in our Life Groups.
Commit to identifying, equipping, and using our gifts to serve others (1 Corinthians 12:1-31; 1 Peter 4:10).
Praise God that He gives every believer special gifts so they can serve the body! There are no useless Christians. Within Life Groups, we learn how God has uniquely equipped us and use our gifts to serve our groups, Willingdon Church, and beyond.
COMMIT to making disciples (Matthew 28:18-20).
Praise God that He authorizes and empowers us to help others know Him, too! Willingdon Church grows because faithful believers tell non-believers about Jesus and mature Christians train up younger Christians to follow Jesus. Life Group Members look forward to using what they have learned and experienced to go and make more disciples.
Life Group Member Commitment
for Non-Christians
COMMIT to participate in Life Group gatherings.
We want you to be an active participant in Life Groups. Show up, engage in discussions, build relationships, and be a part of the group.
COMMIT to learn about what Christians believe.
Ask questions and keep an open mind. Learn how Christians live out their faith. Ultimately, our hope is that you will know Jesus.
COMMIT to understand and respect healthy boundaries.
Although non-believers are invited to be a part of the life of Life Groups, there are some activities that are reserved for believers, such as leading worship in song, participating in the Lord’s Supper, or praying.
生命小组 常见问题
-
我们有许多小组可以选择。有些是基于 "生命的季节"，而有些是 "混合成人小组"，有处于生命各个阶段的人。欢迎你报名参加最适合你的小组。
一旦你进入一个小组，就需要时间在小组中发展关系，这很少能在短短2-3周内完成，所以我们鼓励你承诺在整个赛季参加该小组，看看它是否适合你。
-
Joining a Life Group requires a 9-10 week commitment to attend the weekly meetings. Allowances are made for sickness, vacation, work conflicts, and other special events… but not much else! We have found that the commitment to attending regularly is key to building and maintaining strong relationships and healthy groups.
-
Most Life Groups meet year-round with the leader deciding when to take breaks. Man groups end their studies at the end of Spring season, taking a break or shifting to social gatherings over the summer. Other groups continue their studies.
At the end of each year or season, you have the choice of staying in the same group or trying a new group. Please let your leader know if you are leaving the group.
-
有了在线选项，加入生命小组 ，比以往任何时候都要容易。如果是面对面的小组，我们鼓励父母考虑在家里安排托儿服务。有时，对于家庭来说，最好是共用一个保姆，或者与另一个在不同晚上或时间聚会的家庭交换托儿所。
-
Most Life Groups follow the sermon series using the Life Groups sermon series study questions. If you imagine the weekend sermon as a lecture on Christian living, then the group meeting is like a lab where you get to discuss how the sermon works out in your real life. There are also some groups that are doing Bible studies or topical studies of their choice.
