WHO IS DRIFTING — A MONTHLY CHECK
From synodo.app/guides/notice-who-is-drifting

Group: ______________________   Leader: ______________   Date: ________

WORTH NOTICING (one line per person, not a score)
Name ____________  Missed the last ___ meetings.  Was this usual for them? Y / N
Name ____________  Stopped answering things addressed to them (poll, sign-up, question)
Name ____________  Has not opened the group since it last said anything
Name ____________  Invited on ___ / ___ and still has not accepted

NOT WORTH NOTICING
- How often they open an app. A monthly group opens nothing in between.
- How much they post. Quiet people are quiet.
- What they actually wrote to each other. Never read this to decide who is struggling.

THE QUESTION THAT SORTS THE LIST
Is this a change for them?
A person who has been in and out all year is not drifting.
A person who had not missed once since January is, and that is today's phone call.

HOW LONG IS TOO LONG TO BE QUIET
Weekly group .......... about three weeks
Every other week ...... about a month
Monthly group ......... about two months
(Roughly two of the group's own cycles. A fixed number of days for every group
will call a monthly group quiet every single month.)

WHO HAS ACTUALLY BEEN REACHED
Name ____________  Reached by ____________ on ___ / ___   How it went ____________
Name ____________  Reached by ____________ on ___ / ___   How it went ____________
Name ____________  Reached by ____________ on ___ / ___   How it went ____________

Three flagged and nobody in touch is a more serious sign than any one absence.
It usually means the leader needs help, not the member.

WHAT TO SAY (short, warm, no guilt)
"We missed you the last couple of weeks. Hope all is well — anything we can pray about?"
"Thinking of you this week. No pressure, but there is a seat for you Tuesday."
"We talked about chapter 4 last night and I thought of you. Want the notes?"

WHO SHOULD SEE THIS SHEET
The group's leaders, and whoever oversees groups for the church. Nobody else.
Throw it away when the follow-ups are done — it is a prompt, not a record.
