&lt;p&gt;You need to start with Prayer and continue with a focus of Prayer along with Spiritual Growth of each participant.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some will not catch on to this. &amp;nbsp;At least 90% of your first class will drop out in the first 2 months. &amp;nbsp;Keep your focus on Prayer and keep asking God with his almighty works through the Holy Spirit &amp;nbsp;to support your ministry. &amp;nbsp;It will work but you will never have a huge following. &amp;nbsp;Do not be discouraged , keep your focus and always ask God with the help of Jesus to support you. BELIEVE&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In relationship to the last question? &amp;nbsp;There is no such thing as perfect as long as humans are involved ! &amp;nbsp;That is NOT IN GOD&amp;#39;S PLAN . . . NEVER WAS, NEVER WILL BE !&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is my suggestion and I&amp;#39;m not perfect . &amp;nbsp;This ministry can be very rewarding and also very frustration. &amp;nbsp;Keep the faith and PRAY, PRAY, PRAY.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

I have a few different ideas, and I&amp;#39;ve seen how different people do it.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I want to know what you guys think would be a good way to organize it&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;. Should we knit things and donate them? knit things and sell them and use the money for supporting various things? Use it more as a Bible study-club type thing?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you could go to a knitting ministry at church, what would you want it to be? What would make it perfect?&lt;/strong&gt;
