Because of Galilee’s proximity to the lake and as home to many sailors over the years, we have adopted a sailing theme for our Mission Exploration. Over the next several months, we will be actively assessing Galilee Ministries in preparation for a Call to Ministry of our new Pastor. We are targeting six months for this part of the Call process. The METeam is off to a fast start with key responsibilities assigned, a framework of phases, goals and timelines, meetings scheduled and three “Quick Start” projects already kicked off and in planning.
PHASE 1: SCAN THE HORIZON / TEST THE WIND: Explore and discover ALL of what Galilee uniquely was, is and could be in the service of Christ in our communities. February - April.
PHASE 2: SET A COURSE: Reflect and readjust Galilee’s mission and future direction to serve God’s calling using our gifts and energy. April – May.
PHASE 3: ADJUST THE TILLER & SET SAIL: Complete work to inform/advise the synod, Leadership Board and the Call Team on next steps to help us navigate the path Christ has set before us. June - July.
The Ministry Site Survey (MSP) is the final document MET creates for the Call Committee and Synod. It is read by prospective pastors. Part of the MET process is to revisit our mission, ministries, goals and to honestly evaluate internal and external opportunities, strengths, shortcomings and threats. The METeam will do our best to lead the effort and to capture your collective voices, blessings, ideas, opinions, histories, stories and intentions. We welcome subcommittee volunteers and ask for help to connect us with people in our surrounding communities. As a congregation, we need to work together to determine what to keep, change or get rid of as we prayerfully contemplate how Christ is Calling us and what we need for pastoral leadership going forward.
Please watch for updates on our progress and respond to participate in special events. Reach out to any METeam member directly and/or here is our new email address for questions, comments, ideas and advice: met2023@galileelc.org. Thank you for your interest, participation and prayers!
