Small groups are places of depth and connection in our communities of faith. But now that we aren’t meeting face to face, how do we build relationships and intimacy for learning when we are staring at screens? In this short workshop, we will explore how to create engaging small groups for an online format.  Material covered will include how to create a format that builds relationships, exercises and techniques to try, how to manage pacing, and how to make Zoom work for you (instead of against you).
