Elder's Update
We’d like to thank all of you who came to our congregational meeting last Sunday night. We appreciate the discussion and desire to hear from you further as we navigate this major transition of our church.
One of the things we discussed was that the elders, well before Craig’s resignation, had identified the need to dialog about the state of our church and ways to improve upon it. Now that Craig and Karen will be leaving, this process is even more important to engage in.
The Evangelical Covenant Church (www.covchurch.org), of which we are a part, has developed a workshop called Veritas: Telling the Truth about Congregational Vitality to start this process and conversation. The workshop will be held at our church on Saturday, January 9th, from 9 AM to 3:30 PM and includes lunch.
If you’re a staff member, leader or just want to be involved and contribute to CCC’s efforts to fulfill the mission God has chosen for our church, YOU are invited to participate. There is no cost, we just need your open minds, hearts and a willingness to invest your time.
As a result of this workshop, there will be opportunities to be involved in the ongoing next steps that will lay the foundation for CCC’s next chapter of ministry. If you’d like more information regarding Veritas, feel free to visit the following link on the ECC’s website: http://www.covchurch.org/blogs/revitalize/events - there, you’ll find a description, list of churches that have already participated, as well links to the re:vive blog, inspirational stories and other information.
If you’re interested in attending the Veritas workshop, or just have questions about it, feel free to email or call Kyle Becchetti (kyle.becchetti@gmail.com or 619-654-3234).
