How to start the process? The following activities can be undertaken right away:
- Review how you are currently using your building(s). How many hours are the different rooms of the building being used? This will enable your leadership team to better understand the use of your facilities and to identify new opportunities.
- Gather stories from your community of faith’s members about ways in which they have experienced the building’s usage today and in the past. These stories will demonstrate the richness of activities that have been undertaken and help you to think imaginatively about potential future usage
- Find out how your community perceives your building. Do they know what is going on in the building? The feedback we received regarding our previous posting has shown us that in many communities there is still a lack of understanding around what goes on in church buildings
If you would like to learn more about this process, please contact us; we are happy to provide guidance. The first meeting is free.
