- We would begin with a personal meeting with your church staff, Board members and Key leadership team to establish an understanding of what a healthy church is and how it should function. Our first meeting would include a brief overview of your church’s current vision, missional priorities, ministry programs, staff (paid personnel and volunteers), and organizational structures (management, admin, finance).

- A subsequent “Mission, Vision, Values” seminar would be arranged by Mark Lewis to create a more detailed and strategic plan for revitalization.
