\nTo provide some data for the workshop attendees to compare with the current state of affairs at their local assembly, I\u2019ve asked a few local assemblies with which I\u2019m connected to let me know the following:
\n1. stats as to how many \u2018traditional\u2019 small groups exist in your local assembly and about how many Sunday morning attendees these include.
\n2. stats as to how many \u2018nontraditional\u2019 small groups exist in your local assembly, e.g., women\u2019s ministry, men\u2019s ministry, and about how many Sunday morning attendees these include.
\n3. a brief overview of the manner in which small groups do or do not connect with the discipleship ministry of your local assembly \u2014 1-2 paragraphs or an already developed document for annual meeting\/church board are fine.
\n4. 1-2 resources which they\u2019ve found most helpful for their assembly\u2019s small group ministry
