Grupos Celulares

Every Tuesday night we have cell groups at 3 different people's houes. The purpose of cell groups is to have fellowship or community with other Christians throughout the week and encourage each other, but also to invite new people to the group each week to learn more about the Lord.

Each week someone is in charge of a "rompe hielo" or "ice-breaker" to have some fun and get to know each other. Last night the person in charge didn't come on time so we had a last minute rompe hielo which I have never heard of before, but thought I would share with you all in case you are ever in this situation:)

A woman from our group got out a box of matches and we played hot potato with the matches:) One person lights a match and passes it around the circle person by person. When the match burns out the person caught holding the match is out of the game. This can mean when the match gets so little that it burns your fingers and your fingers are burning so you have to put it out or when you are passing it to the next person. Warning...the match should not be passed to the children under 10 in your group :) It was pretty fun.


The rest of the group we discuss a passage together and then finish with prayer. It is encouraging as people ask questions about the Bible passage and share their stories. We then finish with prayer breaking into groups of men and women. Please pray for our cell group. That people continue to come faithfully and invite their friends. As well as are encouraged each week.


One more kind of funny story that happened this same night is that one woman shared she didn't used to want to live for eternity because she didn't want to live 300 years. That would be too hard. I am glad that this got straightened out quickly.
Thank you!
