As a gift to others and to myself in this group, I will share in the responsibility of maintaining a    prayerful and vibrant community life.  Specifically, I will do my best to live by the following guidelines in participating in this group:
  1. I will share who I am with others, expressing my thoughts, opinions, and feelings honestly with others in the groups.
  2. I will listen to others without trying to give advice; I will respect differences of opinions without insisting that others agree with my position.,
  3. I will maintain the confidentiality of the group; I will not repeat outside of this group the personal information I hear within this group.
  4. I will encourage others to go deeper in their understanding of Scripture and will invite others to challenge me.
  5. I will help to make sure that everyone who wants to speak has an opportunity to speak within the group.
  6. I will not miss sessions, except for emergencies, since the life of the group depends on each of us being present to one another.
  7. I will pray for each member of this group and for our group's continued growth in the Christian life.
