Status Quo ? “We’re having a tough time meeting the budget” “We’ll never catch up with those mega-churches” “There are no young people at our church” “If only we could get all the inactives active” “We’re a WELS church. We’re supposed to be small” “We never have enough volunteers”

Central Question How can we proclaim Jesus to our members & the unchurched in our area in the best possible way?

Keep in Mind … -Big does not mean better -But there is the issue of the “Central Question”

What now? All decisions need to be made: - with the “Central Question” in mind - patiently - care-fully - in Christian love

Get started! He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all – how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? Ro 8:32 What now?
