Our focus is to lead people to become followers of Jesus! The direction of our church is how we seek to do this through APPROPRIATE large group gatherings, AUTHENTIC small groups, and APPLIED training. How?
We are not here to build programs - we are here to build people! This requires changes in our thinking and approach to ministry itself. This fourth of five I continue sharing vision transitions that are happening…
Small Group Training – As we grow larger, we must grow smaller through vibrant and healthy small groups! On September 10 we will begin training potential small group leaders. This will form the base of a strong, exciting, and growing network of small groups!
Christmas Parties – We have blocked off December 8-17 as a time to host 20+ home Christmas Parties. These parties will serve as an avenue to give a gift to all the visitors that attend – what a way to serve our community and build people in the process all while having fun!
In the next Pastor’s Thoughts I will share vision shifts concerning Bethlehem and January / February, 09.
Loving and Leading,
Jeff Powell
