Using Worksheet #1, condense all that you have written into one sentence that describes your ministry. This sentence will need to sum up all that you are going to be doing. Make it to the point and easy to share with others. (You will have an oppurtunity to fine-tune this statement at the Ministry meeting, but be as accurate as possible now.)
Here are some good examples of statements that have been submitted in previous years:
Example: Ministry Statement for the United Methodist Church "To exalt the Lord Jesus by equipping the saints for the work of the ministry, and evangelizing the world to Jesus Christ."
Example: Trustee Ministry "To exalt the Lord by committing time, knowledge, and effort to ensure a secure and safe building for the purpose of fellowshipping and worshipping our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Example: Women's Ministry "Our purpose is to allow Jesus Christ to minister through us to all women in fellowship, friendship, prayer, and sharing His word. Our activites include all women of the church and community, no matter what age."
Example: Outreach Ministry "To provide outreach servies to all ages through caring, and sharing programs, screenings, counseling, and distribution of food and clothing based on the needs of the congregation."
