Life Group Central

Care Force is a group of volunteers at Shoreline Church who deliver meals to those in need (ex: new baby, sickness, loss of a loved one, etc). This is a good opportunity for people who don’t have a lot of extra time to serve on a regular basis. Tell those who attend your Life Group about Care Force and encourage them to sign up. They can either mark their connection card on Sunday morning or call 217-9495.

At the last Leadership Pipeline, we discussed mentoring. Pastor Eric offered 5 necessary ingredients for successful mentoring relationships:

1. build trust
2. show transparency
3. offer time
4. believe in people
5. give encouragement

Of course, we learned a lot of other cool stuff, including the announcement of a new staff member. Oh, you didn’t get that memo? Maybe you should have been there! The next Leadership Pipeline will be July 17th. See you there!

In July, Shoreline will be doing a series about serving - locally (July 13), nationally (July 20), and globally (July 27). As part of serving locally, we’re asking everyone to help us out on Saturday, July 19th. If you’re a Life Group leader, be thinking about a way your group can serve the community. Examples: assisting with a soup kitchen, helping out at the crisis pregnancy center in Fort Walton, a beach clean-up day, etc. Email or call the people who attend your group to discuss possibilities with them. I will be contacting all Life Group leaders via phone in the next couple weeks to see what they’ve selected.

Again, the service day will be July 19th - save the date!

We will be having Leadership Pipeline TONIGHT, June 19, at 7:00 pm at the Destin Community Center. Leadership Pipeline is for ministry leaders and volunteers. We discuss leadership principles and how we can do ministry together. Childcare will be provided in the Hogeboom Room. Please email Esther Yost to let her know if you will be attending and if you have children you will be bringing. Thanks and we hope to see you there.
