ACHIEVING THE VISION
|
People
The whole church needs to own and be committed to such a vision for it to be effective
We will need people who are not as yet involved in the life of the church to take up ministry in some of the areas we have outlined.
Buildings
To fulfil this vision we need larger premises. We will need a larger worship zone, more rooms for our youth and children’s work, a larger kitchen; a bigger and more attractive reception area, a prayer room and quiet areas well as increased storage space. Layout is also important to ensure best use of space.
Location depends on availability, but if a central ecumenical shop is opened, greater flexibility for re-siting the main buildings is opened up, especially if transport can be provided – e.g. through a minibus.
Finance
We will need regular, generous and sacrificial giving to fulfil this vision, help from denominational and other outside bodies and interest free loans. But we also believe that God provides and that any vision needs to be totally surrounded by prayer.
