  • It can be frustrating when after years some people still consume more than they contribute. (Dan Reiland)
  • Immigrants have not only contributed to the largest growth within evangelical Protestant church in the last decade but are more likely to attend church than non-immigrants. (Reg Bibby)

For over a year, Woodstock Wesleyan (Dale MacDonald) has been working on a discipleship process that was initiated by a move of the Spirit within several lay peoplewho spoke at Beulah this summer during the Marketplace Discipleship Conference. The Follower’s Footpath draws inspiration from hiking and trails with Christ as our guide who calls us to grow to guide others along the way. Modeling Jesus (and John Wesley), Woodstock Wesleyan has groups for every level of commitment from people outside of the church to mature believers.

  • Beginning with Outposts, people are introduced to Trail Heads, which leads to Explorer on to Trekker and then maturing into Guide. As people journey through the footpath, the level of accountability and responsibility grows, as does the potential for spiritual growth.

You can see this process in full detail at https://woodstockwesleyan.org/groups/ and if you want to learn more about developing a process for your church, reach out to Tami (tami@atlanticdistrict.com) or if you want more detail about Woodstock Wesleyan’s discipleship pathway you can email office@woodstockwesleyan.org.

  • Our first Atlantic District Commissioning Sunday for unleashing lay leaders as disciple-makers took place in September! When are you planning a Commissioning Sunday at your church?
