FBC Moreland's Vision for 2014

This past Sunday at First Baptist Church of Moreland, Georgia we had a church council meeting and a couple of Sundays ago I shared, "The State of the Church Address" (watch below). I wanted to highlight the direction and goals of 2014. One of my most important responsibilities is communicating the vision of where we're going. First Baptist Moreland intends to create the "Connect Experience" and take steps towards a new building.

Connect to God

• New Wednesday Night Student Worship Service – began last Wednesday.

• Sanctuary Choir Easter Performance – Palm Sunday April 13 (always in the past it's been on Easter Sunday)

Connect to Others

• Sunday School leadership training through the Georgia Baptist Convention. Every class begins using LifeWay's Bible Studies for Life. Churchwide Sunday School campaign begins April 13
  

• Our men attend The Main Event in Nashville, Tennessee – LifeWay’s Conference for Men August 1-2
  

Connect to Missions

• Witnessing Workshop through the Georgia Baptist Convention
  

• Our first international mission trip to Matamoros, Mexico on July 20-26

• Monthly Men’s Ministry – Saturday breakfasts & ministry projects (we haven't been meeting the past two years - we began last month)

• Food Ministry to The Home Lodge – monthly giving away food at an extended stay motel off exit 41 on Sunday afternoons - we begin February 23

• Impact - the Baptist Mobile Health Ministry is coming September 3-6 - Impact is a mission trip to our community

New Building

• Our strategic planning committee will present a master plan and new building plans by May 18

• We're praying to break ground on the new building by the end of 2014
