We currently assemble Midwest Health Kits twice a year during Family Hymn Sings. Please see Sis. Carrie Blunier if you are interested or have questions. We want to thank all of you who were able to participate in our small group discussions this past Wednesday and on October 15th. We are compiling all of the notes and sorting them to identify common themes or thoughts. These summaries will be handed off to a building exploration committee and will be used to guide their discussions around the scope, feasibility, and desires of the church family. We do want to reiterate some points to keep us all on the same page. 1. This discussion began with the trustees identifying several building upgrades that need to be done in the near future. As good stewards, we do not want to spend any money on our facility without exploring all options. 2. We want the church’s input on any large decisions. We felt that these discussions gave us an opportunity to really hear the church in a way that was healthier than an anonymous survey. 3. We also recognize that some decisions will be made that will disappoint some. We will never all agree on the scope of the project, colors or styles of carpet, etc. If we decide to do nothing with our facility, that will disappoint some. We just ask for grace and patience as individuals and committees work through decisions. 4. The ministry team was involved in helping lead the small group discussions but that will largely end our involvement in this process. Our role is the preaching of God’s Word, nurturing of souls, and guiding the spiritual growth of the congregation. We should not let those efforts be negatively impacted by a building project. We will help in identifying the initial exploration committee and then we will be fairly hands off at that point other than helping with some communication. 5. We recognize that there was some angst around the discussion of church planting. It is an uncomfortable topic. For clarity, we are not exploring a church plant at this time. Our Apostolic Christian Church, and many other churches, has recognized that building bigger and bigger churches is not following the pattern of the early church. There are challenges when a church gets too big, just as there are challenges when a church is too small. It is healthiest when the conversations around a healthy church plant begin 5 to 10 years before it becomes necessary. It may never become necessary in Goodfield. However, the only way it will never become a need, is if we become stagnant or shrink. We don’t want that.

It has been suggested numerous times as many other AC churches are offering it, and we need to be open to the possibility. · As we analyze our facility and try to plan for the future, we need to see current and potential pain points. Some things have to be experienced and not just imagined. · If we choose to offer this style of serving in the future, it will be decided by a committee using the information that we collect this fall. Constructive feedback is critical. Please be aware that any feedback that is shared will be copied into a shared document word for word for various committees to sort and organize. · Until a building committee chairperson is designated, you can send your feedback to Bro.
