Participant Commitment Statement<\/h4>\n

At Black Rock Church, we take the discipleship journey seriously and believe that intentional commitment creates the best environment for spiritual growth. As you join this new class, we ask that you enter into the experience with a heart willing to be fully present and engaged. To honor the purpose of this class and to support both your own growth and the journey of others, we ask participants to commit to the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Attend at least 5 out of the 7 class sessions.<\/li>\n
  • If you miss a class, you agree to take responsibility for making it up\u2014whether by accessing the online session, reviewing provided materials, or participating in an approved alternative opportunity.<\/li>\n
  • If you are unable to make this level of commitment at this time, we encourage you to consider taking the class at a later date when your schedule allows for full participation. Doing so helps open a spot for someone else who is ready to engage fully.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    By choosing to participate, you acknowledge and affirm this commitment. We are grateful for your dedication and are excited to walk this discipleship journey with you.<\/p>\n
