Discovering Our DNA

HONORING, AWAKENING, AND EMERGING OUR FUTURE TOGETHER

OVERVIEW:

The Honoring Our Past, Creating Our Future process brings the entire church community together to share their story, and to begin to see the ways they have created identity, continuity, meaning, and purpose as they orient themselves to present circumstances and future possibilities. The process supports them in becoming aware of how their story has been compelling, limiting, wounding—or freeing. By understanding their story as the rich framework for their life orientation, the community discovers that they are greater than their story.

INTENTIONS:

To honor the sacredness of this transitional time in the life of this ministry.
To provide support for the ministry as it moves through the transformative integration of the past with future possibilities.
To assist the congregation to move lovingly and effectively through this time of change and openness to future possibilities.

KEY TASKS:

Honoring the Past, Healing the Present, Defining Current Identity, Empowering and Expanding Our Leadership Base, Strengthening Unity Connections, Creating our Future.
