You

Question?
• If each member in a class represents a Lego, can you connect with every member? “”You need a big group so you
can say, I’m a part of something significant. But you can’t share prayer requests within a large group; you can’t pray for each other; you can’t even know everybody. So you need to be in a small group, also.”
Rick Warren
