We choose places to meet, that are comfortable for them and that they are protected. In refugee camp could be many pressure from muslim people. That means the meetings would be at many places our homes, restaurants, parks, gardens, else. The key characteristic will be that they feel welcome and at home. For a small group, meeting in houses will be practical. In the Ekklesia we will celebrate the Jewish feasts, because these feasts are celebrated in heaven. These feasts will be celebrated in bigger gatherings also in a church, conference center or open air
In the Ekklesia we figure out, which people could be the man/woman of peace. The leadership is given to that person. As soon as possible should the person of peace take and grow in leadership. To raise now leaders in the movement will be very important, to have a growing movement.
Definition of Person of Peace:
We define a person of peace out of Matthew 7,24-27: “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
In this scripture we see that two factors are relevant, that the person is teachable and wants to learn. The second important characteristic is that the person is also bringing the words into practice.
