| Berkshire Partnership for Missional Church cluster gathering at Bughfield Parish Church 15th October 2016 |
The Partnership for Missional Church (PMC) Steering team at All Saints reports:
"We were advised that to have a good meeting food had to be
involved! With that in mind, the PMC
Steering team organised Space to Talk About God with a bring and share lunch in the Cornerstone in September. The team brought those
present up to speed about what had been happening. During the first PMC year we learned to
listen and also to discover who our partners were (eg schools, other churches). Listening involved interviews, All Saints
timeline and Dwelling in the Word – all trying to discern what God is calling
us to do at All Saints.
A few weeks later more food was involved. The Steering Team (all 4 of us) and members
of the PCC joined with All Saints Boyne Hill to try and discern what God wanted
us to do in our various churches. The
focus had to be outward looking and would probably look very fuzzy. By the end of the session we had a few ideas
of where God was leading us at All Saints (still to be determined).
What happens next?
·
We
are now looking for an adventure leader and team to carry these ‘fuzzy’ ideas
forward. This project will last about 10
months and it doesn’t matter whether it succeeds or fails. All that matters, is that we will be working
together as a church towards something that God is calling us to do.
·
We
need more members to join us on the steering team.
·
We
need a very enthusiastic congregation who will venture with us with the ‘fuzzy’
project."
