We believe that meeting online was our only option for a season (because meeting physically was illegal here in the Philippines). As we move out of the pandemic we want to strengthen our physical presence because that’s the best way we can pastorally care for our people. We believe that people should be planted in an accessible, physical, local church just like how it is modeled in the Bible

Once your Connect Group makes the transition to meet physically, you will have to decide on a consistent meeting location. Upon deciding, we encourage you to continue to meet as a group.

However, if some members cannot not make it due to distance or difficulties in traveling, they have the option to transfer to a different Connect Group that meets within their area. If that’s you, your Connect Leader can help you make the transfer! The reality is, you will most likely transfer to a new group as most people would want to be placed near their home or workplace for convenience. If you want to stay with your current group or Connect Leader, you will have to be willing to travel to wherever the new location will be.

You have two options.

1) Let your Connect leader know and he/she will help organize your transfer to a new Connect.

2) Let your current Connect leader know that you will be transferring and then sign up for a Connect Group again through this form. This is our recommended option to ensure that our team can assign you to the group that’s the right fit for you!

When our church went online, people from all over the world got connected to our family. If you would like to stay connected to Favor and start meeting with a Connect Group physically, but you’re far from our existing campus locations (Manila and Brisbane), we would love to help out and see if there is any possibility that someone in your area is also connected to Favor. Send us your info through this form so we can help you!
