Trip Discipleship Groups

If you are a trip leader on the GO Mission Trips platform, you can create a discipleship group directly from the Discipleship tab on your trip page. This automatically links the group to the trip and enrolls all team members, making it easy to assign pre-trip reading plans and courses.

What You Can Do

• Assign Reading Plans — choose from a library of Bible reading plans for your group
• Assign Courses — enroll your group in discipleship courses
• Track Progress — see who is keeping up with assigned material
• Schedule Sessions — set up meeting times and track attendance

Managing Your Group

• Click Manage Group to view members, add/remove people, and schedule sessions
• Group leaders can delete their own groups using the trash icon
• Deleting a group soft-removes it — member data is preserved
