Small Group Leader Job Description/Expectations
ULP Small Group Leaders’ primary role is to positively impact the lives of the students they will be engaging this summer and encourage them to grow in their walk with the Lord.

Small group leaders must be able to handle a small group of students and be able to assess the needs of the group.
