A TIME OF GROWTH
A Vital Journey for New Believers
Taking part in an equipping course is an investment in yourself, your future, and your personal development. At its core, this decision signifies your dedication to self-improvement, a commitment to nurturing your potential, and an acknowledgment of the inherent value in lifelong learning. It's a step towards becoming the best version of yourself. So, go ahead and embark on this enriching journey – you won't regret it!
Process Books
This Equipping Track is offered free of charge to LFCC partners with guidebooks (called “Process Books”) provided to those who attend a "New Partners" meeting. The Group Leader will help the new partners to work through the equipping steps in each of the four Process Books.
ENCOUNTER WEEKENDS
When new partners have worked through each Process Book, they attend an Encounter Weekend, bringing along their relevant Process Book. These Encounter Weekends take place on specified Friday evenings (19:00-21:00) and/or Saturdays (08:45-13:00). Dates for Encounter Weekends (also called “E-Weekends”) will be announced throughout the year.
There are four Encounter Courses (and four accompanying Process Books) in the Equipping Track and those enrolled can complete the course over four weekends spread out over several months. The themes of these four Encounters are:

READ YOUR BIBLE IN A YEAR
”So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God"
Statistics show that most people professing faith in Jesus have never completely read their Bible. Many people start reading the Bible but then become overwhelmed by the number of chapters (1,189) and verses (31,102) that there are. What we don’t realize is that we can read the Bible in a year by reading fewer than four chapters a day.
