In ooreenstemming met die Groot Opdrag, die “I will go” -inisiatief van die Wêreld Konferensie en ‘n begrip van ons plaaslike uitdagings, het die Noordelike Konferensie van Suid-Afrika strategiese doelwitte vir 2020-2022 en daarna uiteengesit. Hieronder is ‘n paar van die opleidingsmodules om te help met die bereiking van hierdie doelwitte:
The Power and Structure of Small Groups
In this video we trace a brief history of small groups from its inception (Father, Son and Holy Spirit – the first small group) down through the stream of time. We look at Jethro’s great advice to Moses, Jesus’ model of discipling, the structure of church in the New Testament, the power of Social Groups in Adventism and modern examples of phenomenal evangelistic success – all because of the evangelistic, relational and nurturing value of small groups. We also look at the conclusion of one of the most comprehensive studies ever conducted on church growth, and give practical stories of organisations and individuals that were deeply impacted by small groups.

A support group provides an opportunity for people to share personal experiences and feelings, coping strategies, or first-hand information about diseases, treatments, hardships and challenges. It brings together people who are going through, or have gone through similar experiences.
