Thank you for your interest in being a community group leader!
Community Group Leader Description
Community groups are an integral part of what we do as a church. We believe that sustained life change occurs as we are growing in a relationship with Christ, and that this happens best when we are prioritizing intentional relationships with others who are seeking this same goal. Community groups provide people with the opportunity to connect with others, grow in their relationship with Christ, and experience community. Our community group leaders create environments for people to develop and grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ.
Paul taught the Corinthians that some plant the seeds, others water them, but God makes them grow (1 Corinthians 3:6). Group leaders have the privilege of creating environments in which seeds of faith are planted and watered in the lives of those they lead, while trusting God with the growth. Our leaders play a pivotal role in helping us achieve our mission to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ!
Since our community group leaders play such an important role, we take great care when enlisting them. Please read through the information below to better understand the role of a leader, qualifications, and expectations. If, after consideration, you are interested in pursuing community group leadership, please follow the instructions below to complete the group leader application. Once we receive your application, we will contact you for an interview. Should you have questions regarding any of the following information, please call us at +27(0)215313317 or click here to send us a message.
Role of a Community Group Leader
Community group leaders are responsible for providing their groups with vision, direction, and support. Leaders are successful when they are personally growing in their intimacy with God, community with insiders, and influence with outsiders (The 3 Vital Relationships), and are leading their groups in such a way as to encourage the group members’ growth in these three relationships as well. Community group leaders are supported by the GroupLife director and Lead Pastor.
