Article: CO poisoning comes with severe health risks and can even be fatal. The symptoms of CO poisoning are difficult to distinguish from a host of other ailments but there are signs to look out for. The main symptoms are headache, muscle weakness, dizziness, nausea, shortness of breath, confusion, blurred vision, and loss of consciousness. If you're noticing all of these symptoms at once, get into fresh air immediately and then seek medical attention. If you notice water condensation gathering on table tops or on the inside of window panes, this may be a sign of CO accumulation. Indoor humidity can be caused by a host of different causes so don't panic if you notice it. However, it should put you on alert if you notice medical symptoms or see other signs of accumulation. If the pilot light in your water heater or gas stove is going out frequently, flickering, or otherwise emitting a strange flame, this can be a sign of CO accumulation in the air. It could also be a sign of a faulty pilot light so don't panic unless you're also noticing health symptoms. Either way, contact a plumber or electrician to inspect it more closely. Cars, power generators, or anything else with a motor that burns oil will emit large amounts of CO. Always run a generator outdoors. Do not run your car's engine in a garage with the door closed or you will experience serious and potentially fatal poisoning within minutes. If you are feeling the symptoms of CO poisoning and find a running engine, get fresh air and then seek medical attention.

Article: Many home churches begin by studying religious doctrine with likeminded church goers. Studying doctrine can be a good way to gauge whether your congregation works well together. Study doctrine from your religion when you first start meeting with potential members of your home church to establish spiritual beliefs as an organization. Most religious doctrine is subject to a variety of interpretations. Studying doctrine together can help you get a feel for your church's spiritual beliefs and values. Find common beliefs to draw from as you form a church. Schedule a regular meeting time for low-key readings and discussions. Do not appoint a lot of leaders or establish a budget. Let everyone get comfortable with one another first. Existing churches may want to help out a home church. Home churches are not necessarily seen as a threat or a challenge to existing religious institutions. Established churches will be understanding if a home church exists because certain people have trouble attending regular church services for a variety of reasons. Consider approaching a church for sponsorship. Choose a church that you respect and whose beliefs align with your own. Part of the benefit of a sponsoring church is that you have a higher authority to draw judgment from. In a home church, strong personalities can take over and guide your church in unwanted directions. A sponsoring church can help your congregation stay grounded. Schedule a time to visit with the leader of the church you choose. Have a sit down meeting and explain your reasons for wanting to start a home church. Tell them you want a sponsoring church to guide you in your early days of leadership. As you start to gather members, think about why you started a home church to begin with. Draw in people with similar beliefs from your religious community. At first, many people may come and go from your home church out of curiosity. Learn to figure out which people fit in with your church's goals and values and reach out to them specifically to grow your congregation. For example, say you started a home church because the existing church in your area is difficult for many to reach. Look for people who frequently miss services due to difficulties with their commute. These people's needs would be met through your home church. Choose sincere believers who have a genuine need for a home church. Many people like the idea of a home church because it seems fun and trendy. Make sure your members want to be part of a home church because you're providing them a specific spiritual experience. A home church does not need to start off with a huge congregation. In fact, most home churches start with only a few loyal members. Try starting out with a casual gathering of friends and family members who share your basic religious beliefs. From there, let the church grow organically as word spreads. Many home churches are designed to provide the intimacy larger churches lack. It's important to keep the size of your home church manageable, especially if you're using a smaller home for your church. Honestly assess how many people can fit into your home church considering the space you have and the needs of your members. For example, maybe you and your congregation are only comfortable with groups of around 10 to 20 people. Once you have roughly 10 to 20 regular churchgoers, it's okay to taper off seeking new members. Most home churches have small congregations. If you have a lot of members, more than one home church may crop up in the area. Do not think of this as a challenge or threat to your church. Remind yourself people prefer home churches due to the intimacy, and if you're at capacity there may be a need for more home churches in your area.
