Midlands Mission Center 2008 Program for Ministry
Planning for Mission • Our Planning strategy involves the active participation of every congregation in the Midlands Mission Center. The recommendations of the Mission Center Leadership and the priorities matrix from the Mission Center Advisory Council resulted in the proposed 2008 Program for Ministry. Included in this proposal are methods for funding this program.
The Plan • Share the full picture of Mission Center finances from all resources. • Convey the process used to arrive at the current program for ministry • Initiate a voluntary assessment program in the Mission Center • Share the schedule for that program.
The Process • The Proposed 2008 Program for Ministry brochure, to be distributed today. • Each congregation meets during the summer to plan their ministry program and how much of the Mission Center program they will support. Completed and sent to Mission Center Financial Officer by October 15, 2007. • Mission Center will adjust the Program for Ministry based on the feedback from the congregations and present the results at the fall Mission Center Conference for approval.
