Groups Can Grow Too

I’m a member of a home group—a contributing member. This means that I get to help with the decision-making. Our group gets to decide about our own customs and practices. For example, we choose our format, location, whether or not we chant, or whether we close with the Lord’s Prayer or not. And here’s my personal favorite: Do we use expensive coffee from the fancy coffee shop or get the cheaper stuff from the discount store to save money. Yes, our group is autonomous.
