All Church Planning Morning

ALL CHURCH PLANNING MORNING

SEPTEMBER 24

ALL ARE WELCOME

WHO ARE WE?

WHOM DO WE WANT TO SERVE?

WHERE SHALL WE BEGIN?

You are invited to attend the all-church planning morning scheduled for Saturday, September 24, 9:00-12:30 p.m. The theme for the morning will be our identity as a church--who we understand ourselves to be, who we want to serve and reach in our community, and what our priorities will be in the coming year. Jay Krusell, a consultant trained in church planning by the Connecticut Conference, UCC, will lead our time together which will begin with coffee, juice, and pastries. We would like to gather a large group from our congregation that is broadly representative of our whole membership so we can move forward into a new church year with a vision before us of:

§Who we are as God's people in this place,

§What our strengths are,

§How we plan to reach out to our neighbors, and

§How to begin doing that in the coming months.

Please make a reservation for the morning by calling the church office--928-7405.
