Modus Operandi Of An ISM Cell
Every cell has a leader, like in every team; there is an appointed leader, ‘cell leader’, who is accountable for the cell and its members. The leaders’ primary responsibility is, to invite and rally cell members to the monthly meeting called a ‘cell meeting’.
The following are the features of an ism cell
Monthly Cell Meetings
Cell meetings hold once every month for two hours. The cell meeting can hold any day within the week or weekend in an onsite location that is convenient for the leader and the members. It is strongly adviced that the cell meeting holds monthly in a specific location/venue and at a specific day and time. This will help cell members structure adequately for it.
Virtual Online Cell Meetings
ISM cell meetings can also take place online, with the cell leader and members in different locations. Cells in countries where christian activities are officially restricted are usually pioneered in this manner. It is however important to schedule onsite meetings at a date not far from the initial creation of the virtual cell, if this is possible.
Cell Growth and Planting Of New Cells
A proof of the vibrancy of a living organism is growth and division. Through their activities, ism cells are encouraged to grow and give birth to other cells in the cities and locations where they are and other locations, giving many more ministers the opportunity to be impacted through their membership of a cell.
Missionary Cells
ISM cells may also embark on the planting of new cells in different countries other than the country where the cell operates. Such cells are referred to as ism missionary cells.
Other Cell Outreaches
ISM cell leaders and their members may also embark on different projects and outreaches as a corporate effort to further impact other ministers as well as their communities. Such outreaches include the following:
- ➢ community development projects benefitting the less privileged.
- ➢ reachout and free distribution of christian materials to designated groups and communities.
- ➢ organization of international missions, cell planting outreaches and ministers forum.
