3. Matthew 28:18, 19 – Then Jesus said, ”Therefore go and make disciples of all nations.” 3 main audiences for Livestream ministry
Our own congregants who are sick, homebound, traveling, or who are snowbirds. This is our current focus.
People within driving distance of the Vista campus. People often check out church online before coming to the sanctuary. This is a timely connection with our new building project. This will become our focus this spring.
The rural communities up the Copper Trail in which we hope to plant Vista fellowships. This is our goal for the fall.

4. Here is what we are NOT doing.
We are not building a brick and mortar church up the Copper Trail.
We are not asking our members who live in or near the Copper Trail to start going to our fellowships there.
We are not asking you to stay home and watch livestream each Sunday.
We are not changing our Sunday morning worship service when we add a live chat to the livestream. We will still have singing, prayer, offering and preaching.

5. Here is a timeline of what we ARE doing.
Fall/Winter – Refining the technology involved in producing our livestream service.
Winter – Brainstorm how to make our small group ministries available to people who do not come to the Vista campus.
Winter – Seek/apply feedback on our service from friends and family.
Winter/Spring – Develop the chat host ministry during the livestream.
Winter/Spring – Develop marketing materials for Vista Online and marketing to Oro Valley, Catalina, and Oracle.

6. What we ARE doing continued:
Spring - Meeting with Copper Trail community leaders to identify community needs and interests; identify a space for Sunday services.
Spring/Summer/Fall - Sponsor and/or participate in community events in the identified Copper Trail community so we get to know the community and they get to know us.
Summer – Actively market Vista Online to the Copper Trail community.

7. What we ARE doing continued:

How can our church members who can’t come to church right now still participate in our small groups? *Bible study livestream example
For people who are watching online and live far away:  How can they participate in the ministries of our small groups in meaningful ways? *Rummage sale example
