Gathered Together – Small Group Leader Kit (KJV) | Printable + Editable

You do not have to have all the answers to lead a small group. You just need to save someone a seat.

Gathered Together is a printable small group leader kit with everything you need to plan, lead and care for your group in one place. Discussion guides, icebreakers, prayer cards, sign-up sheets, trackers and more. Just print and go.

It is written in plain, warm words for real leaders: the first-timer who said "yes" last Sunday, the host who opens her living room every week, and the pastor who needs one simple kit for every group in the church.

Want to add your church name, logo and colors? Choose the editable version. You get the templates as a PPTX file that you can upload into Canva (free account works) or open in PowerPoint, Keynote or Google Slides, plus a simple 2-page "How to Edit in Canva" guide.
