EQUIP LEADERSHIP MEETING at 7pm, Bryan’s house.
We’re having a leadership meeting to discuss things we want to do with our class. Discipleship, socials, where we serve, unity amongst other classes have been some of the topics. There are specific things that we want to implement and ASAP.
We will spend the first part praying for each other and the class. The second part will be a funneling of ideas if you will. Several of you have awesome ideas in these areas and especially those that went on the retreat and those that were at the leadership huddle. This will be open to all in our class who want to be a part of shaping the vision for Equip, meaning not just for those officially on leadership. We will also be looking to fill our sport coordinator role for the upcoming sports seasons.
