Strategic Ministry Plan

Intentional Ministry Planning

Do you ever wonder where you are going or how to get there? Worse yet, do you find your staff and people wondering where you are going and how you will get there?

Intentional Ministry Planning is a process that brings focus. The process and plan will unite leaders, enabling them to articulate a clear and compelling direction for ministry.

The Intentional Ministry Planning process often includes assessment and will enable you to clarify your core beliefs, core values, mission and vision. You will identify your constituents and establish objectives for each constituent group.

The Ministry Plan includes an Annual Action Plan that clearly establishes measurable goals and enumerates the specific strategies, activities, programs and ministries that to accomplish those goals.  Conceivably, the Annual Action Plan could be revised year-by-year while the Core Beliefs, Core Values, and Vision might only need minor “tweaking.”

Scheduling and Time Required

The Strategic Ministry Planning process (separate from the Survey & Assessment), typically takes three weekends (Friday evening through Saturday afternoon), over a period of three or four months.  Participants for two of these weekends will be a small group of hand-picked ministry leaders.  Participants for the third weekend will include “anyone who is involved in any area of personal ministry.”
