SUMMARY:Rachel's Homecoming
DESCRIPTION:Once every year\, Rachel Global Ministry pauses all regular activities and calls every single member to gather in one place. This gathering is officially called the Homecoming. \nThe name is intentional. The ministry deliberately avoids calling it an “Annual General Meeting” (AGM) because that term sounds too official\, too serious\, and too much like a corporate boardroom. Instead\, “Homecoming” captures the warmth\, familiarity\, and joy of family members returning to a shared home after time apart. \nEvery member of Rachel Global Ministry – regardless of how active or inactive they have been during the year. This includes: \n· Those who have missed the regular Family Fellowships.\n· Those who could not attend international fellowships.\n· Those who did not participate in Family Visits or missions.\n· Those who have been completely absent from almost everything. \nThe Homecoming is the great equalizer and the great reuniter. It assumes that life happens\, schedules clash\, and energy runs low – but once a year\, everyone can make an effort to return.\nThe Homecoming has several vital components: \n1. Seeing each other – The most important part is simply looking into each other’s faces\, greeting one another\, and confirming that everyone is alive\, well\, and still standing. Members check on each other with questions like\, “How have you really been?” and “Life hasn’t been too harsh on you\, I hope?” \n2. Taking account – The ministry leaders give a full account of what has been happening throughout the year. Many things happen behind the scenes or across different communication channels that members may not have followed. The Homecoming is the time when leadership explains and brings members into understanding of:\n· Various programs that have been running.\n· Projects the ministry has completed or advanced.\n· Plans for the coming year. \n3. Member input and approval – Members are not passive listeners. They have a voice. They can approve or disapprove some of the leadership’s suggestions for the future. This is similar to the voting/approval function of a general meeting\, but done in the warm atmosphere of a homecoming. \n4. Fellowship and fun – As with all Rachel Global Ministry programs\, fun is central. Laughter\, games\, shared meals\, and joyful celebration are woven throughout the gathering.
