The Grove 2022
The Grove was awesome this year! There is nothing better than a night full of celebration, vision, worship, prayer and good popcorn, ha! Here is a brief overview of some things we covered this year.
1) We Celebrated all God has done over this past year
- I was so encouraged to hear how everyone saw God clearly moving in this past year of ministry. There was lots to celebrate and to thank God for.
2) We “recalibrated” and talked about some new resources.
Communication reminder: Anything from Planning Center will be service related. Any other form of communication comes via an email service called “mail chimp”. Please check your spam folder if you are not receiving emails from the CGWorship email.
Block Out Dates: Thank you for taking the time to put in your blockout dates! This helps us out more than you know! Our rhythm for scheduling will be 1-2 months out, so the more you can be up to date on your availability, the more it helps us out!
PCO: will have chord charts for music and a link to an MP3 of the song (Youtube for MP3 file). All the individual instrument files will only be applicable to a couple people on our team who can not use the Playback App.
Notes: the only “Notes” functionality we will use (for now) is the “person” tab. The information that is auto populated in the other fields will not be applicable for now.
Playback App: We will be transitioning to this as our primary resource for prepping to serve. Watch this tutorial video on how to use it and ask questions if you have any!

3) We remembered our “Why”
- We walked through the manifesto, which is our aim for our team. This year I wanted us to lean into one of the points more deeply but we ran out of time to unpack it during our session. Check out this video about me unpacking the manifesto point: We are Shepherd and Sheep

4) We ended our night by praying together and re-signing the team covenant
- I want to make a point for us to “re-agree” on the things we value most as a team and the best way to do that is to all re-sign the covenant together. If you were unable to be there, I would sill like for you to sign it. Why is this important? Some people may call it silly or unnecessary…but I call it culture :)
Again, thank you to all who made the effort to come out this year! To those who were unable to make it out, I hope you can join us next year. I am grateful to God for each of you and it is my privilege to serve along with you!
