Equipping for Ministry Daring to Dream for the Maritime Area October 29, 2016

Appreciative Inquiry Just like plants grow towards the light…so too organizations grow towards what is life-giving, central and important to them. What is central in our organization?

A New Way of Being Together Organizations that focus on the positive see noticeable change and improvement overall Accentuate the positive rather than eliminate the negative

Our Story: Disciples in Maritimes

Recap AllCan2016: At our BEST, we are: Church camp Ecumenical getting together Community Youth Cooperation Caring Dedicated Communication Developing ministers Fellowship (working together) Interesting Creates curiosity Uplifting Open-minded Supportive Hopeful Why do you stay with the OACC / Disciples of Christ? Why are you involved? Why is our best the best?

What is Possible for the Maritime Area? What is going well? Where are opportunities (not problems!)? How do we want to be together going forward? What would happen if “our best” was the norm and not the exception? What if “our best” was who we were everyday?

How Do We Want to Be Together? What qualities, values, and “seeds” do we want to hold onto going forward? What do we want to celebrate? What will we be known for? What should we look like? 5-7 words that describe who we are, that we commit to living into

Next Steps Strike a small group to continue to work on what we have started Set a date(s) to meet Keep in contact with leaders from each congregation – lines of communication wide open Commit to prayer this new approach & the work we do! Celebrate the gifts we have, accentuate the positive! Live this new heart-space every day
