Who do I meet with?
Your SHAPE Discovery Session is facilitated by a trained Ministry Representative who will depend on the Holy Spirit to guide your time as the three of you start to explore service opportunities here at Pinelands. The Ministry Representatives are volunteers.
What can I expect?
During your SHAPE Discovery Session your Ministry Representative will...
Meet you at a mutually convenient place
Offer you something to drink
Talk about your day
Open your session in prayer asking the Holy Spirit to guide the two of you.
Be confidential.
Review your SHAPE Profile starting with your experiences and ending with your spiritual gifts.
Talk about other responsibilities you have in life to see if the time is right for you to serve. We have found over the years people fall into one of four areas:
1. Ready to serve
2. Need time to heal…spiritually or emotionally
3. Already serving
4. Want to start a new ministry
If you are ready to start serving at Pinelands, your Ministry Representative will:
Offer you 2-3 service opportunities that fit your SHAPE.
Ask you to contact the selected ministries and start serving as soon as possible.
