July 2022 Facilitator Meeting

     For our prayer group facilitator Zoom gathering of July 16, 2022, the focus was on technical tips and faith sharing. The recording of this meeting is available in two YouTube videos (see below). Part 1 is a 20-minute overview of how to use the Resources tab in this blog, with information on the wealth of materials that are available to us  through communications that CO, Ltd, sends out -- particularly the videos that continue to be added to CO's YouTube channel and suggestions that are shared in the quarterly Voice E-Bulletin for Volunteers. Part 2 includes a training video with Nestor de Armas* offering pointers on faith sharing in prayer groups, followed by our group discussion.
