Alive Church
This section is concerned with establishing a Household of Faith or a series of households in an area with an active church building.
An established Bible Study, Prayer or Thematic Home Group Meetings may be turned into a Household of Faith. The Clergy would have the initial responsibility of selecting a Leader and a Host for each Household of Faith. The Clergy would actively support the Leader or the group of Leaders, seek to mentor them and provide them with suitable teaching materials for the Household. (See Resources in Step Five) The location and weekly meeting time for the Household would not be announced generally but participants would be invited by the Household Leader. A sign up sheet could be provided for those interested in taking part.
Initially, the Leader would enroll three other committed and active members of the Church and they would invite four to eight others who might be less active, occasional attendees and/or non attendees. There would be some flexibility with numbers to a maximum of twelve. One of the Households might be for Teenagers only, or Single and Single Again. Another might be for a Mixed Group of different ages including children. Teaching materials would have to be suitable for the make up of the Household.
For the actual meeting of the Households refer to Step Three "Running the Household of Faith."
