OUR STRATEGIC PLAN
Our Church's next Strategic Plan is under construction!
All church members are invited to participate in the Church’s next strategic plan – a vision of who we want to be in three to five years. The information collected through the focus groups will be translated into an action plan. Plans must be analyzed and linked to financial decisions and directions. We seek to be inclusive, and your responses will be compiled, analyzed, and woven into a plan that the entire Board of Trustees will review. Subsequently, it will be reviewed by a group of leaders and congregants before the Board approves a final version. This process will take about six months, beginning in September 2023.
The following questions will be asked of participants at each Strategic Planning Focus Group session. Short answers are best, but explanations are permitted when necessary. All responses will be recorded. All answers are correct. We will not debate answers. We hope for full participation and expect to go around the circle several times.
