Mission First
Mission First
The church leader sets the scene with resources, seminars and preaching about vision and local mission calling.
A church coordinator is appointed and sends a link to all members of the church community and invites them to respond to about 70 questions covering present and future mission priorities. Members are encouraged to pray before responding.
The output from the survey indicates collective priorities for your church's mission.
The leaders complete a template to identify current and future demographics.
Property Masterplan
Property Masterplan
The leaders are guided through a process to consider the impact of these priorities on the current property and the need for change to meet the needs of future mission.
A property strategy is agreed and architects skilled in improving church facilities then prepare an outline design solution.
This is presented for workshop discussion, costed and finalised.
An illustrated on-screen presentation follows.

Why it works
Why it works
MID is so successful because it engages all church members in the process of change and gives everyone an opportunity to take part within a carefully organised framework.
People are energised by a shared vision that is both inspiring and actionable. Missional Identity can be a unifying experience no matter the outcome!
“This process has opened my eyes and helped me to look at our ministries.” “It's not until you stop and actually take the time to look at the individual areas of the building you realise just how insufficient it is in facilitating effective excellent ministries.”
