El Futuro de la Iglesia

This weekend, the staff of Word of Faith Family Church (myself included) will be heading for a retreat in near Columbus to discuss the future vision and plan of the church. I am excited since I've never really been a part of anything like this before plus I can really see a lot of things developing that will be changing us a lot:

The Youth Group
Alternative Edge is about to be completely revamped. This includes changes such as small groups, more emphasis on Wednesday nights, removing the Sunday night service as it is now, and splitting the High School and Junior High into basically separate ministries. This is all preliminary brainstorming, nothing is set in stone, but this is generally what we're looking at.

Outreach Committee
We saw a lot of work and volunteering go into the NightLight and we now have an Outreach Committee. I think we're going to be seeing a shift toward more outreach events hosted by us and hopefully even in cooperation with other churches. I think we'll be doing another similar event as soon as the Spring.

The Media Team
Actually going through a rough patch right now as far as volunteers, but I have actually seen a lot of interest lately from the congregation. We're looking at a lot of video editing right now and maybe even video announcements as soon as the beginning of next year. This would require two things, about 3 people to shoot and edit that and a new Mac for editing. The 5-6 year old G4 is showing it's age a lot lately.

So all in all, looks like a lot of stuff is happening....we may even be breaking ground for a new wing pretty soon. But we'll see what God has for us this weekend...pray for us!
