WE Lead

We have a great ministry starting in the next week. It’s called WE Lead. In six years our church has grown from a dream, to a small group, to a worship experience, to a church. 

Today, we do mission work all over the world, we have dozens of small groups all over the city, we have hundreds of students who call our church their home, and we have three worship experiences in two locations.


As our church grows our pool of leaders needs to grow as well. 

The Water’s Edge needs men and women to lead us: 
  • As we help people develop their relationship with God 
  • As we help people grow in their human relationships 
  • As we help families raise children to become spiritually mature followers of Jesus 
  • As we serve and love our city and our world
  • And as we move from being a church in rented facilities to one in a permanent location 

WE Lead is for you: 
  1. If you want to grow as a follower of Jesus 
  2. If you want to develop as a servant and / or leader of others 
  3. And if you want to find your place in the church and do your part in leading The Water’s Edge as we write our exciting next chapters. 

We are going to explore things like: 
  • How to pray and have meaningful Bible study 
  • How to be grateful and generous 
  • How to lead teams 
  • How to invest in other people and share our faith in practical, authentic ways
  • How to take your next step as a servant leader at The Water’s Edge and in our community 

We will have two groups: one will meet on the first Thursday of the month and the other will meet on the first Monday of the month. We will gather from 6:30 to 8:00 seven times from October to April. You will have some small assignments between sessions to help you grow. 

I have been praying three things happen: 
  1. Participants will make some new, lifelong friends. 
  2. The church has a new pool of equipped and excited leaders who are eager to serve in an area they are passionate about. 
  3. And most of all, I hope participants can look back over this time we are dedicating to God as a time in our lives that we experienced some of our most significant growth as a follower of Jesus. 
Email Nick Baker at nick@watersedgeomaha.com if you are interested in participating. I can’t encourage you enough to join us. 

The best is yet to come… 

Craig
