>Should I show next week?
Absolutely. And the next week and the next and the next. This is why I always recommend to those starting a small group, do something you'd be doing anyway.
So if no-one shows, use it as prayer time, bible reading, devotional, etc.
>And no one shows, how late do I stay?
Whatever time the group is set to start and finish at. Seems odd, I know, why not just bail once it is clear no-one is going to turn up, but a small group is a commitment and people need to know if you say 7-8, you mean 7-8, not 7-7:10.
Think of that time less as a commitment to the group and instead as a commitment to God, you're devoting that time to Him.
Always close out by saying a prayer over an empty chair. Pray for God to bring someone to fill it, someone that you can introduce and invite to the group. Do this with the group once you have one, make them involved and a part of the growth of the group.
Grab a copy of Dave Early's 8 Habits of Effective Small Group Leaders (cheaper ebook version), I got introduced to it recently but it is now required reading for our small group leaders and it'll really help, I promise.
