  11. The Living Weekend Servant Team Each team member: • has been approved by a board • has been given 3-5 minutes to share details of their testimony. • has received guidelines before presenting their faith story. NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  12. The size of your church doesn’t matter! The Living Weekend Servant Team is proportionate to the number in your church family NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  13. Purpose  • By sacrificially and transparently sharing team-led activities and short faith journeys, Living Weekend teams challenge the church to a deeper relationship with Christ and each other. “Go and make disciples”. Matt. 28:19 NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  14. A Living Weekend is about… Opening doors of discussion to dialog about individual and church growth. Discipleship in action by serving the local church. Enriching and encouraging everyone to live out spiritual values NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  15. Here’s the plan… Friday evening- dinner & fellowship, breakout groups, corporate worship and praise. Saturday Morning - Coffee Fellowships. Lunch with visiting team sharing Rest and Reflection Dinner, small groups, communion service Sunday service – Living Weekend team sharing and leading NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  16. What will happen? • We trust God for moving hearts and minds into the places He desires. • We can never truly know the inward things that happen, but we have been privileged to hear wonderful results of obedience. • Our prayer is that each church family be empowered in wisdom and unified in purpose. NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  17. How will we know? What if Peter had stayed in the boat when Jesus said, “come?” NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  18. Before a Living Weekend we’ve heard… “we don’t want to put a burden on people’s time” “a handful of people do all the work – there is no commitment from others” “we already have testimony time in our church” “we would love for you to come and share with us!” NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES

  19. Positive impact… “After your team came to our church, our children have started reading scriptures more than ever before!” Annie “I have never witnessed the moving of the Holy Spirit before and I now know God is real!” Bill I had never looked at the Grace of God in that way before! Wayne “We are forming more small groups” Pastor Lyons We have much to do to impact our community, but we’re ready to reach out…” Pastor Ford “what you shared has touched my life!” Linda NW OUTREACH MINISTRIES
