** Staying Regularly Connected
You and your team should also implement an immediate "staying regularly connected with your people" plan over the weeks of non-gathering. Sample options include:
1. Sunday video messages sent out during worship hours for viewing at home
2. Weekly email and mailed update and encouragement letters from the pastor himself (Mondays)
3. Weekly e-newsletter with things from other church staff (Wednesdays)
4. Weekly Prayer calls to your people from pastor, staff, deacons, lay-leaders (rotate the lists)
5. Inspire your people to call each other and pray in those weekly letters and newsletters
6. Inspire your people to go to their neighbors weekly to offer prayer and assurance.
7. Graciously remind your people to send in their tithes in those weekly letters and newsletters
8. Discover how to use ZOOM or SKYPE or FACETIME for leader meetings and prayer times
9. Encourage Deacons, S.S. and Small Group leaders to stay in contact with folks
10. Share upcoming plans for the Fall as something they can look forward to
11. Send them a common Daily Bible Study plan that you can comment on in your lettters
12. Send them a common online link to a message series you can comment on
13. Stay ahead of the curve in announcing your church gathering plans as they unfold
14. Meet with your lay leaders from time to time during the shut-down weeks
15. Continually speak hope and trust in the Lord in all things!
