At the meeting in Valencia, not only do Carlos and Aliya attend but Elias is there with his brother Ahmed and sister Maryam, both high school students. Carlos and Aliya had been on a parallel spiritual journey with Elias, both afraid to tell the other what they were thinking. Elias is very helpful in explaining what a DBS is and how much it has helped him. As Elias does not live in Valencia, Anthony leads their first DBS and sets up another meeting for the following week.
Elias has clearly made great spiritual strides. Change his Faith Status to Believer. Add New Contacts Ahmed and Maryam assigning them to Damián as before. You should notice that when you entered Ahmed as a new contact you received a warning of Duplicates Detected. This is due to another Ahmed in the contact data base. You can eliminate this as more information is learned about specific contacts (like complete names). It may also be helpful to add Elias in the Other tile under Connections to other Contacts to his family. That way you will understand how you found contacts in another city. In addition, create a new pre-group “Valencia Alvarado” containing the family members, including Elias, and Anthony. Then assign it to Damián. Set Anthony as the leader by clicking on the footprint next to his name in the Member List. In the Groups tile under Parent Group choose Elias College Group. You can also check that this pre-group is studying the Bible and has leaders under Church Health. As this is a new group in a different city with a non-team member leader, you decide you want to follow this group a little more closely for a while. Your Administrative privileges allows you to do that. Click the Follow selection in the top right so that you continue to be notified of changes to this group.
