One Legacy 2018 Goals

As we pursue God's vision for Grace Church of Mentor through 2030, we have intermediate goals for each year. Every goal is generated by a team that aligns with our church's mission statement: Grace Church of Mentor exists to glorify God by evangelizing the lost and equipping the saints with the goal of Christ-likeness.

Our pastors presented the new goals for 2018 during a Sunday evening service. Watch the full presentation below.

List of Goals by Team

Equip (Pastor Kent)

Lord willing, by December 2018, the Equip roll-out team will...

1. put in print for addition to our disciple-making resources a Bible study method entitled Simply Blessed.

2. aid parents as primary disciplers of their children by putting into print a “beta” version of our Foundations material written on a mid-elementary level with appropriate accoutrements to motivate young minds to interact with the material.

3. implement a series of simple, repeatable leadership development actions in partial fulfillment of the 2 Timothy 2:2 mandate.

4. aid both disciplers and disciples in manifesting the manifold grace of God here at Grace Church (1 Peter 4:10-11) by making available on GCM Online a pastor-approved spiritual gift assessment.

5. make available to the elders in a single place leading indicators and tracking indicators of spiritual health here at Grace.

Reach (Pastor Mike)

1. Growth in prayer.
   • Growing by each soul praying for their own role in disciple-making (Matthew 28:19-20).
   • Growing by each soul praying for more members of GCM to participate in disciple-making (Luke 10:2).
   • Growing by each soul praying for us to see God grant spiritual new birth to the GCM family in light of our obedience.
     
     
2. Arch Ministries Assistance. By the end of 2018, the Reach team would like to assist a greater clarity and delegation of Arch-related responsibilities to GCM volunteers, Reach team members and other ARCH churches, with a desire to continue assisting Pastor Tim beyond 2018 and with the ultimate goal of seeing Arch Ministries grow and perpetuate beyond the lives of those currently ministering in Arch.

Glory (Pastor Steve)

1. Develop an employee policy manual.
2. Invest in a Social Media Coordinator.
3. Construction Documents (based on funds available).
4. Contingency plans for temporary space utilization.
