Pastoral Care on Alpha

Connection Christian Teaching Conversation 3 Essential Elements of Alpha

“Shepherding”: tending to needs, strengthening the weak, providing, shielding, protecting, refreshing, leading, comforting, guiding. Psalm 78:52; Psalm 23 Christian community = a place of refuge and safety What is Pastoral Care?

Look after/care for every Alpha guest Pray for each one in your group Learn their names, make friends Dependence on Christ, not us. Remember: Spiritual maturity is a lifelong process. 1. Aim: Maturity in Christ

Alpha gives guests an opportunity to experience:  Prayer  Christian community  Bible Truth  The Holy Spirit  Dependence on Jesus, not you  Salvation : Be prepared 2. Method: Growth in Maturity

Be an Encourager: Validate, affirm them. Creation / The Fall / Redemption / Glorification Be a Listener: Talk about their interests. Listening tells people “what you say matters to me.” Be a Peacemaker: Don’t debate or criticize. What unites us is infinitely greater than what divides us. 2. Growth in Maturity

Love involves commitment. Guests: Freedom to Come and Go Leaders and helpers: Give 100% What is our responsibility as an Alpha team? 3. Commitment

“To this end I labour, struggling with all His energy, which so powerfully works in me.” Colossians 1:29 It’s God’s energy and work of the Holy Spirit that empowers us! 3. Commitment
