Mission planning toolbox for congregations
This page of resources are in response to the LIFT (Living into the Future Together) initiative by the ELCA. We hope they are helpful for you and your congregation
Living into Our Future Together
- What do you believe God is calling your congregation to be and do in your community? Has your congregation ever developed a mission plan for following that call?
- Congregations are being encouraged to form and participate in networks within and across your synod that will engage more people in creative approaches to ministry. In what kinds of networks are you already a part? What kinds of networks can you imagine participating in?
- Please visit these links which will offer you and your leaders a number of resources and options to explore where you are seeing Jesus in your day-to-day ministry. You may also contact Sandy Chrostowski, Director for Evangelical Mission to help get you started.
