How successful was your LIITA event?
So, the LIITA dust has settled and reports have been sent in. Now is the time for measurement and evaluation. After looking at the form we had to fill up, I realised that it wasn't comprehensive enough. With some inspiration and a few suggestions I've come up with a handy list to help measure the success of your LIITA event. Presenting:
The SCL-Inspired LIITA score guide!
Scoring of visitors brought:
1. Uncelled believer from church = + 1 point
2. Unchurched believer = + 2 points
3. Pre-believer = + 3 points
4. Pre-believer who, upon being presented with the gospel via the Bridge method, accepts Christ= + 7 points5. Irregular cell member shows up = + 1 point
6. Irregular cell member leaves early for another appointment = - 2 points
7. Uncelled believer from another church = + 0 points
8. Visitor is from a foreign country = + 2 points
9. The foreign country was formerly communist = + 3
10. Cell member from another cell in your church = - 10 points
11. College cell member who has graduated and is transitioning to the workforce = + 2 points
12. The transitioning college cell member can play guitar for cell = + 5 points
13. A boy/girlfriend that actually attends another church tags along = - 2 point
14. That boy/girlfriend who attends another church just got installed as a cell leader there = - 5 points
15. That boy/girlfriend who attends another church and just got installed as a cell leader wants you to settle in that other church so that the next 100 years of your bloodline will be members there = - 50 points
Scoring of the program:
1. Christmas carols were sung = + 1 point for each carol
2. The organisers relaxed and smiled* = + 1 point
3. Your drinks were chilled, using ice where necessary* = + 1 point
4. Ice wasn’t used because it melted into a huge chunk and someone tried to break it into smaller pieces
by bashing it against the wall, causing the bag to tear and spill all the ice^ = - 5 points5. The cell made their own Christmas video to present on that night = + 50 points
6. There are left over LIITA flyers after the event = - 1 point for each flyer
7. Cell members met up earlier to decorate Christmas trees for the event = + 3 points
8. LIITA flyers were cut up to decorate the trees = - 5 points per flyer
9. Neither of the two recommended programs were used = - 30 points

^ true story, apparently.

My cell's score is in the region of -700 points, which after glancing through the other YA reports sent in and making some rough calculations, would be the lowest scoring cell. Bah. I bet this guide is skewed.
Anyway, at least we got a video. Pretend you don't notice the cut-up LIITA flyers in it ok?
