This document outlines the "OnEdge Model" for a cell-based ministry. It discusses issues with traditional cell group models and the realities of the target population for this ministry - mostly 18-30 year olds in Chicago who do not attend church, have little money, unstable families, substance abuse issues, and are not Christian. The OnEdge model forms leadership teams to oversee smaller cell groups that meet once a month but also have frequent informal social gatherings. It focuses on heavy investment in mentoring and addressing members' daily needs to build trust before spiritual growth. The goal is to integrate with the larger mission center through events while keeping a flexible non-traditional approach.

Establishing and Maintaining a Successful Paul Harris SocietyElizabeth Toms
The Paul Harris Society recognizes Rotary members and
friends of The Rotary Foundation who contribute $1,000
or more each year to the Annual Fund, PolioPlus Fund, or
approved global grants. Learn how you can help achieve the
Foundation’s goal of establishing a Paul Harris Society in
each district, or work to maintain those that already exist.
All too often parish councils seem to be personality-driven or appear to blunder about in the dark with little information to base their decisions upon. Or worse, there is scant reference to the mission of the parish and whether or not this decision moves the parish closer to fulfilling that mission or leads to “mission drift.”

ideas to help accelerate clubs toward a successful year. Scale
up to greatness as we share a common vision and motivation
for the coming year and beyond.
How can your club attract and engage young professionals in the work Rotary is doing? What does the next generation of leaders seek in a membership organization? We will discuss best practices, teach successful strategies, and share energizing stories of connections between Rotarians of all ages that will motivate you to incorporate these great ideas in your club and district.
Webinar slides from webinar recorded on 12 February 2019.
The Paul Harris Society has grown to over 21,000 members in 138 countries worldwide and 16% of donations to The Rotary Foundation come from this special group of members. Are you looking for ways to encourage growth in the society within your district or club? Or, new ways to keep society members engaged? If so, join us for a webinar hosted by the Foundation’s Annual Giving team, including Rotarian panelists, and get tips about how to recognize new Paul Harris Society members, engage them after they join and continually engage them for years to come. In addition, we will include a brief history of the Paul Harris Society along with an overview of updates.

• Ways to promote the PHS in your clubs and districts
• How to recruit members
• Tactics for engaging and thanking PHS members
Forty percent of club leaders say that “attracting new members” is the biggest challenge their clubs face. But is recruitment the issue? Or is it actually learning how to create healthy clubs that offer a vibrant membership experience, one that is irresistible to both members and visitors? Using stories of transformation from Rotary and in their professional careers, trainers Louisa Horne and Doug Logan outline one strategy for making necessary changes to the club experience while including members in the process.

Cafechurch Presentation to Fresh Expressions Gathering ParticipantsAlister Pate
This is the presentation I gave to a group of people involved in the Fresh Expressions - Mission Shaped Ministry gathering in Melbourne on 30/1/14. It talks a little bit about the history of Cafechurch, and a lot more about teh things we are learning together.
In this presentation we share the outcomes from our first round of Listening Posts where we shared who we are and who we are called to be, and information about our needs for a Director of Youth and Family Ministries to fulfill our staff.
Ministry to children and youth is also ministry to parents. This session will identify some of the challenges we face in supporting parents of children and youth as they participate in the development of their child's biblical literacy and will look at easy ways to increase biblical literacy among parents.
Mental Health Inclusion Ministry Intensive Inclusion Fusion Live 2018Stephen Grcevich, MD
The National Institute of Mental Health reports that one in five U.S. children and adults have a diagnosable mental health condition, and attributes of common mental health conditions often create barriers to church attendance and engagement for persons with mental illness and their families. Participants in this intensive, led by Dr. Steve Grcevich of Key Ministry, Catherine Boyle of Outside In Ministries, Brad Hoefs of Fresh Hope and Jolene Philo will be introduced to a model for outreach and inclusion of children and adults with a broad range of mental health conditions into weekend worship services and other ministries and activities that serve as catalysts to spiritual growth and will be provided with the necessary tools for crafting a mental health ministry strategy consistent with the unique mission and calling of their church. Registration includes a copy of Mental Health and the Church by Dr. Grcevich, along with Key’s Mental Health Ministry Planning Tool.

Since 2006 I have been involved in High School Ministry through My Outreach group Africa Youth Rescue Initiative and under Kenya Students Christian Fellowship and these are great lessons that I have learnt in the field and from Mwalimu Michael Gachohi who is a great mentor in high school ministry.
1. Demography
65% of the population in Kenya is below the age of 18yrs. The majority of our teenagers are in one secondary school or the other.
2. Research findings. In a research a few years ago, the respondents in some urban churches in Nairobi were asked to indicate the age at which they received Christ as their Lord and savior. The final analysis is shown below.
70yrs and above 0%
50 – 69yrs 1%
30 – 49yrs 5%
20 – 29yrs 15%
4 – 19yrs 79%
Where then should we invest our time and resources as a church and as individuals?
3. The opportunity
The students are in school at least 9 months p.a and 9hrs per day for the day scholars. This presents a golden moment to share with them the gospel. I am not advocating that the teacher to use their lesson to preach (although it may be ok once in a while to mention something), rather, we should model the Christian life to the students
A teacher having 16 lessons each of 40 minutes a week, each of 40 students has 25,600 man minutes or 427man hrs or 18 man days with the learners per year. This translates to 44 days p.a. of 24 hrs each. If we do not reach them effectively when in high school, they may eventually become unreachable. We will give an account of what we did with the opportunities God gave us.
4. Cost effectiveness
The students are mostly already organized for you. There is no adverts in the media, no sourcing security etc. the cost is mainly time and some fare. Those involved in organizing evangelism meetings/crusades in churches know how costly an effective meeting is.
5. Impact on church and society.
i. A strong Christian union is very helpful in instilling values and discipline amongst the students
ii. Most decisions made in teenage are lifetime decisions. We should assist in making them decide to follow Christ. That is why cooperates target the youth in their adverts.
Many leaders in the church today, such as Dr David Oginde, the Bishop emeritus of CITAM, & Bishop Mark Kariuki of DC gave their lives to the Lord while in High School. The same applies to innumerable Pastors, Elders and Deacons. The Lord eternally bless the people who took their time to minister to those students.
6. Obedience to the great commission
Mat 28:18 And Jesus came and spoke unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Mar 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

2. Issues with Formal Cell Groups
• Cell groups require a balance between disciples, stable
members, a new folks
• Cell groups tend to grow faster than one can properly
mentor
• Cell groups need a method to integrate within our
mission center framework
• Cell group leadership can turn into a “social status”
• Cell groups that meet too often can get boring and
repetitive
3. Our Reality
• Our Target: 18-30 year olds that do not attend church
• Most of our folks have little money, the others almost have none
• Most of our folks live in various areas of Chicago, about 1 ½ hour
radius
• Most of our folks do not have stable families
• Many of our folks are bisexual
• Many of our folks struggle with addiction
• Many of our folks are not Christian and/or atheists
• We have to grow and develop new leaders
• Many of our folks require HEAVY investment before trust can be
established
• Most of our folks have an Internet connection (over 90%)
• We have no full time ministers
4. Small Group
• What is your reality?
– Who are the people you are trying to reach?
– How do you see your ministry integrating with
the Community of Christ?
– How many stable members do you have?
– ??
5. Leadership
• How is our leadership team structured?
– Team of 4
– Focused on ministry, communication, and
organization
– Each leader is assigned
• A block of cell groups to be responsible for
• People to directly mentor
• An area of expertise to develop
6. Worship
• What does worship look like?
– Typical cell group format
– Topics / Scripture / Prayer
– Communication
– Duration and Location
– Mentoring
– Food Coordination
– Yo Buddies / Me-Toos / Chatanooga Style
Prayers
7. Communication
• How do we communicate?
– We use Google for our email / calander /
contact tracking
– We use Myspace / Facebook
– Each leader is assigned a subset of folks for
mentoring
– Each meeting call list to invite and coordinate
food
– General followup
8. Mentorship
• How do we mentor?
– Each cell group is led by 1 leader and
someone they are mentoring
– We use folks as part of our cell group worship
– We integrate folks with other church-related
events
• Youth program, etc
– We help folks out with daily-life stuff
9. Mission Center Integration
• How do we integrate into our mission
center?
– We are an official congregation
– Each leader tries to speak in various
congregations
• We treat those events as cell group events, include
invitation
• Often times we have more cell group folks than
church folks
10. Breaking the Bank?
• What about $$?
– We have a call list of 90 people and around 25-35 that attend regularly
– Our yearly budget is $2000
• $500 of that is for our trip on Memorial Day
• $500 of that is for a congregational free retreat
• So, our worship and activities only cost around $1000 and most likely it will
be around $500
• We talk about offering in 4 ways
– Giving of yourself by coming to cell group to build a relationship with
God and your church family
– Giving of your invitation to make a difference in your friends’ lives
– Helping out by bringing food or items to address personal need
– Helping out financially
• We do not pass an offering plate
• We use PayPal for financial donations
11. Multiplication
• What about multiplication?
– We use places that allow for 30-50 people
– Gives us time for proper leadership mentoring
– Necessary due to the required commitment
• Good ministers do not grow on trees
– Once we reach 50+ on a regular basis, we will
have to cross that bridge
• But we will not buy a building
12. OnEdge Approach
• Misc. Notes
– Although we meet once a month, formally we usually
have a number of things going on each month
• Personal visits
• Social gatherings (e.g. Super Bowl, Baby shower)
• Dinners / etc
– We try to make all things unique to make non-
members comfortable
• We have baptized people in pools and Jacuzzis
• We do a yearly Carnival Church
