Actually, no, you cannot have too many satellite schools within a local area. Here are the reasons why. The satellite school &nbsp;program and its curriculum are flexible enough to be &nbsp;tailored to the specific needs and goals of each congregation. Suppose one congregation needs to train some to teach or to equip future teachers through a deeper &nbsp;level of study of God&#8217;s word. So, they decide that to do this most effectively, a Wednesday evening class &nbsp;should be conducted because this is the most convenient time &nbsp;for those involved. Suppose another congregation wants to &nbsp;use the program to teach and ground new Christians in the &nbsp;faith. So, they have decided to streamline their studies for &nbsp;that purpose and make it a part of their community evangelism. Still another congregation sees the need to reach those on the outer fringe. So, they use Sunday &nbsp;mornings to re-introduce Christ to members who have lost &nbsp;their way. The purposes for these satellite schools are &nbsp;different and they may not all intend to bring other &nbsp;congregations together. Instead, they are specialized and &nbsp;structured for different needs. This way, two or three &nbsp;congregations may be within twenty minutes of each other and each one be involved with a satellite school of their own. What specialized area of ministry needs special &nbsp;attention in your congregation? The satellite school program can offer that special needed &nbsp;energy, organization, materials, and opportunity to assist in achieving your goals. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Posted by Darrell Wallace<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!--EndFragment--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a question I am asked very often.
