OUTREACH MISSIONAL GROUP VISION 2012 and Beyond
This page is only accessible to the Outreach Missional Group Members in order to give you "privacy" to review and discuss our Vision as at 2012 and beyond. You are invited to add comments to this page.
If you each click on the button(??) Subscribe under Page on the brown section on RHS of the page you will be advised by email if anyone of us changes anything on this page so that you will be kept up to date with what we all think. (You can also easily Unsubscribe if you get tired of the emails.
This is a discussion page for Outreach Missional Group to: update and provide a current Vision (for use with the GGG campaign 2012).
NOTE: We are being asked for "dot point Visions" which will be finessed by another person into the whole GGG document ie not asked to produce a wordy or "pretty" document.
We are asked to review the past Vision as to what we have achieved etc.
Items 5 and 6 on this CommunityOutreach page are relevant. I assume they were compiled as a result of the original OTWT process although item 6 appears to have been updated (by others) more recently.
So looking at the items under 5. Key Propositions for Growth, how do we 'fit'?
(Add your comments in the table below after clicking on "Edit (text)" (RHS) and "Save Changes" (above) when you have finished OR email or phone me your comments; I think and hope the table will expand as required.)

What do you make of the "nice" sentences in 6. What might GWUC look like in 2013 if we were faithful to these propositions?
What else should we add to our current Visions?
- Managing the COP Process.
Supporting international projects to which GWUC people are connected ............. eg Baguia & Ermera, East Timor, MIA and Community, Nakuru, Kenya
Supporting Local & National Projects .... eg Charleton Flood Relief; Habitat, Brushed with Kindness (BWK) program and general fundraising; Asylum Seekers, Aboriginals NT, as well as through personal committments at Manigrida & the Kimberley; Frontier Services (Centenary).
The following attachment is a list of comments given on 'Post-It Notes' by attendees to The Day event on Saturday 30 June when the four Missional Groups presented their Visions to the attendees (Elders, Church Council Member and other interested persons). I guess the comment Lyn McDonald’s ideas on advertising, outreach. (shouldn't the comma be removed?) refers to our Group's recommendation, and presented on the day (and at the February Missional Ministerial meeting), of including one project/event per month during our Church services and an appropriate monthly offering being made to this project/event (generally not monetary).
Does this document add (or modify) Our Vision?
We need your comments etc by Monday 20 August please.
It would be really great if, in our busy lives, each of us could at least quickly review and comment on this request.
(I understand. It's taken me some time to get a "grip" of this VISION request).
