Tales from Two Meetings


Oakfield Visioning Team
Byron Pegram is heading up a group of folks from Oakfield UMC that are working toward developing a mission and vision for the church. The Staff/Parish Relations Committee and the Lay Leadership developed a list of folks that they thought would be good for this group.

This group will be meeting for seven consecutive Mondays using Dan Dick's Vital Signs as a guide. The first meeting was enjoyable to attend. It was nice to hear about people's experience in church, as well as their dream for where they would like to see the church be.

Hopefully when we're done...we'll have a mission and vision for the church to unveil at our upcoming Charge Conference in December!

Confirmation
Last night, Confirmation class was the first class in which we actually worked through the CREDO curriculum. I can't speak for the confirmands, but I had a lot of fun. Those 90 minutes seemed to go by pretty quick. We even had the opportunity to do some drawing of God's creation...the results were mixed ;).
