As part of the work following from the 2020 Summit, we are seeking expression of interest from you about joining the 2020 Planning Group. Please click the link below to read more about this Group, and how you can join.

What is the purpose of this Group?

1. This group is to pray, discuss and identify future direction and ministries based on input from the congregation, and the understanding of our needs, strengths, limitations and passions.
2. Once a high level ministry direction is set, the group will proceed to set goals and outline plans and strategies to achieve them and present them to the elders for approval.
3. At the same time, existing ministries may be streamlined to re-align with the overall ministry direction, subject to approval by the elders.

Who can or should join this Group?

1. Whoever currently is a leader in any ministry or whoever has a passion in ministry planning, is eligible to join this group.
