THE PRESBYTERY OF MILWAUKEE
May 24th, 2016 Presbytery Meeting
Dear Teaching and Ruling Elders of Milwaukee,
It's time to Celebrate and Dream! Plan to attend the May Presbytery meeting at Good Shepherd Trinity Church on May 24th at 4 pm.
In April of 2012, the Presbytery took the exciting step of approving “What's Next” for our Presbytery. Four years later, it is now time to evaluate the changes that were made, look at what the futures holds for us and where God might be leading us. At our meeting on May 24, there will be an opportunity to participate in a process led by Laurie Ferguson to determine what’s next for "What’s Next." She will lead us in a well thought out procedure that will result in positive directions for the Milwaukee Presbytery.
Just as it was important for participation in the process that developed “What's Next” it is equally valuable to have input from as many as possible at the next Presbytery Meeting. It would be helpful to hear what was good, what was not appreciated and what should be changed in the years to come. Attendance by as many as possible will only improve the work of the day and any decisions for the future.
The tentative schedule looks like this:
3:30 Registration and Refreshments
3:50 Announcements
4:00 Presbytery Business Meeting
5:00 Workshop - "Celebrate and Dream" - Facilitator Laurie Ferguson (BIO)
6:00 Dinner
7:00 Worship with Rev. Craig M. Howard preaching
Please join us as we look back at what we accomplished with What's Next, and ahead to what we can do to equip and inspire congregations and their leaders.
We gather together with Christ as our Leader,
Jeannette Bell, Moderator
