Stuff We Need:

Let’s face it, our churches don’t always find it easy to acquire the things that we need to help us pursue our projects. Usually we either can’t find what we’re looking for or it’s just too expensive! Sometimes though, we don’t really know what we’re looking for until we see it! Lifecycleproject.org is facilitating access to these types of things that we always seem to need for ministry.

The LifePlan

Every now and then a congregation needs to take time to prayerfully consider how things are going in its ministry. It needs to consider questions like, “Are there changes that we need to make to become more effective?” “Are there areas we are overlooking, where we could be involved in helping and reaching people in our neighbourhood and beyond?” The LifePlan is designed to help churches ask these question and do something about them.

Encountering

Your Community Workshops

Your church is God’s chosen instrument for accomplishing His mission in your neighbourhood. This workshop is designed to introduce your church community to the basic principles and practices for encountering your neighbourhood. In this workshop we examine basic steps for developing awareness of your neighbourhood, understanding it's complexity, and outlining possible responses to what you discover.

LifePlan Coaches (COMING IN 2008)

These coaches, once trained, will supply direct support to churches that want to work through the LifePlan
