Practicalities in My Cell Group

As cell group leaders some of the most important responsibilities we have is just to keep the ball in the air. When it's all been said and done, there are just some basic practical matters that need to be sorted out.

At our cell group meeting on Saturday the 6th of March we discussed several practical questions. Please feel free to give your thoughts and honest opinions on these issues. You can give your opinion on one or all of the topics highlighted here. Your feedback is welcomed!

1. Kids growing up – how do we incorporate them in our cell group?

2. How do we deal with the issue of language and cultural differences?

3. What do we do when a crisis arise?

We have our high school kids in cell group with us every second week, and we conduct the group in the usual way without "dumbing down" for them...no need to; they are very sharp. Having their contributions and especially praying with them is a real blessing. Every other week, though, we have adults only, and that is where we are able to share and pray together over matters that we wouldn't feel comfortable to share with the kids. I know small children present a different kind of challenge, but I offer the suggestion that for those cell groups also, the week between fortnightly meetings could be used as an "adults only" night, where one parent stays with the children and the other takes a turn to meet with other adults in the cell group for uninterrupted, deeper level sharing and prayer.
