The SIAFU Network Chapter Meeting Guide

18 The SIAFU Network

have a Chapter meeting without committing to go away and doing something that week!

8. Provide a short briefing with announcements on Chapter business (7 min). For example, you can give info on an upcoming work project and details, and remind people of the opportunity to give to support Chapter expenses (i.e., monies that go toward upcoming work projects, meeting expenses like coffee). Give informa- tion about your next SIAFU meeting, and warmly invite folk to hang around as long as they would like after service for fellowship and refreshments. 9. Offer a benediction to the Lord at the conclusion of your gathering (3 min). Have someone ask God’s blessing on those present as they depart and scatter to their various homes and life situations. Invite those who do not know the Lord to come to him, and affirm the truth with all who are present. Follow the Spirit’s leading, and always challenge disciples to follow Christ, until you gather again. After the prayer, officially end the SIAFU Chapter meeting.
