  2. These workshops are designed for . . . • A culture of participation, engagement and collaboration • A feel that is open, welcoming, upbeat and stimulating • A structure that is easy to facilitate • A process in which it’s easy to participate • An outcome that is easy to record and integrate • A variety of settings, group sizes and demographics (including language and literacy)

  3. Invitation Strategy • Try to involve a diverse group of people who represent the future of the Church • Try to involve people who will be active in the Church 10 years from now. • Try to involve people who are opinion leaders and influencers (whether or not they hold official positions). • Try to involve people who are currently active in the Church, as well as those who are less active. • Offer to do sessions for groups that are already meeting for another purpose. • Combine sessions with social events or other gatherings Suggestion for Invitation Dear (Friend, Colleague, Church Member, etc.) We are very interested in hearing your ideas about the future of the Episcopal Church. Last year’s General Convention chartered a Task force to Reimagine the Episcopal Church. This Fall, members of the Taskforce are trying to hear from as many Church members as possible. We are holding a (1-hour/2-hour) session on (day and date) at (time) at (location). I would be pleased if you could join us and the conversation about the future of our church. Please let me know if you are interested and available to participate.

  9. What can YOU imagine?

  10. We want to hear what the Spirit is saying through God’s people. In 2012, the General Convention created a taskforce to reimagine The Episcopal Church for the future. The members of the Taskforce want to hear the memories, hopes and dreams that people have for The Church. We are meeting with as many people as we can over the next few months. We will use what we hear to help us shape recommendations for The Church’s structure, administration and governance. Today we are here to listen to you.

  11. What is your best memory of The Episcopal Church?

  12. HOLD ON and LET GO In all change, moving forward means letting go of some things that were important in the past. It also means holding on to a few things that will be important in the future. What should The Church hold on to? What should The Church let go?

  13. Imagine it’s 10 years in the future and you are talking to a friend about The Episcopal Church. What will you say brings you the greatest joy?
