The future of your church will be shaped by how you answer three simple questions:

• “Who are you here to engage and serve?”
• “What are you doing to engage your who?”
• “Why are you doing what you do?”

This evening event is designed to help you and possibly a few others from your church wrestle with the implementation of your mission as it relates to your “who”, “what”, and “why”. This will also be an opportunity to evaluate your mission plans considering your answers to the three key mission questions. For churches who are in the second round of the cohort and who bring a team, a coach will be provided to guide your table discussion at this event making this time a deeper dive into your concept as it relates to the mission. Dinner included.
