Our community certainly remains healthy and vibrant, and as we can clearly see, we are growing. Worshiping rhythms, discipleship rhythms, and volunteerism are all changing around us. As we move into an even more vital future, we need to discern our next best steps. To help us in that process, we have enlisted the help of Pastor Nathan Swenson-Reinhold, a professional coach and consultant with GSB Fundraising (www.gsbfundraising.com) to work us through a process that helps us reground in the what, who, and how of our lives together. The process will ultimately leave us with a strategic plan to focus and harness our efforts over the next several years so that we can powerfully show up shoulder to shoulder with Jesus in the mission we share. In addition, the work of the strategic planning process will inform and support the capital campaign needs we believe we need to address as well. We are building a Strategic Planning Team to oversee and guide this process with the help of Pastor Nathan. The people on the team will be: Paul Dean, Kienan Mick, Julie Gorvin, Iver Johnson, Marilyn Tubbs, Erin Bennis and Mike Zick. We will provide periodic updates. The process began in September. Here in October we will share a congregational survey with you all and would love it if you would respond. The survey is an opportunity to share your sense of the mission of Prince of Peace! It is a privilege you will not want to miss! We will share those results with you in a way that is manageable and digestible after the survey is complete. We anticipate that by late winter 2025 we will have strategic priorities built based upon this process, and teams built to shepherd our clarified priorities. What can you do? Participate in the pieces you may be asked to engage in, and pray for our congregation and the process. God continues to work powerfully through Prince of Peace. Pray for our work, for our focus, and for the ministry that is ahead of us. For more information, please contact Kienan Mick at [email protected] who is involved in this process.
