How to Form a Master Planning Team

The Master Planning Team’s mission is to effectively incorporate the Vision Team’s principles within a comprehensive master plan. It will also include such suggestions which are articulated in the Needs Analysis and Feasibility Study.

This team should include five to eight members, with key representation from Worship, Christian Education, Youth, Music and Finance, as well as the Pastorate. 

At the outset, the Master Planning Team should establish an effective mechanism for implementing its decision-making authority. That plan should represent the best thinking of its ministry-minded individuals as well as those of any technocrats who may presently serve the church in finance, Audio/Visual or IT roles.

The Master Planning Team should be led by a recognized leader in the church. This individual should be chosen for the position of respect in which he or she is held by the congregation.  It is important that this person be able to clearly articulate the findings of the team to any audience.
