1. Introduce L.I.F.E. to the Pastor/Leader of your organization. The “Introduction to L.I.F.E.” DVD, included in our Presentation Pack, would be an excellent tool.

2. Choose a spiritual authority over the group. This person has the responsibility of spiritual oversight over the L.I.F.E. Group.
3. Request prayer for the startup of your group, and continued prayer that God will bring those who need this ministry in their lives.
4. Select a Group Facilitator to facilitate group meetings. This person has the responsibility of implementing the L.I.F.E. Group. The facilitator will benefit from the assignment-by-assignment curriculum found in the Facilitator’s Guide. More information at www.freedomeveryday.org/store.
5. Purchase several L.I.F.E. Guides and materials for your group to retain interest when a new member signs up (they can start reviewing their Guide immediately). Order online at www.freedomeveryday.org/store.

5. Visit smaller groups (i.e. Sunday School classes) to talk about L.I.F.E. Ministries and possibly give a testimony to the effectiveness of the groups.
