YOU are closer to your communities,
And when you are not close to a community, you probably know someone who is.
Effective Means of Understanding the Challenges of our Communities

◦We need to identify needs and speak up and request assistance for areas of deficiency.
◦Often the most important thing to know is what we don’t know.
We are leaders in the Wisconsin Annual Conference

I am not here to tell you, given available demographics,
WhereWhat kindWhen to plant a new faith
community.
What I am not doing…
![Page 26: Board of Congregation & Circuit Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/568150f0550346895dbf097a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
No matter where we stand in the state of Wisconsin, there are unmet ministry needs.
I am here to share a belief…
![Page 27: Board of Congregation & Circuit Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/568150f0550346895dbf097a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Some of these are best met by◦Existing faith communities, and/or◦New faith communities
Determining who, where, how, why and when is our role.
Unmet ministry needs
![Page 28: Board of Congregation & Circuit Development](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062519/568150f0550346895dbf097a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Purpose: utilize accurate information to identify ministry needs
The more local the information, the more meaningful it is.

We tend to be tradition bound.We try to find ways to be in ministry to
“new people” just like we always have.Ask and listen to how our identified and
targeted audiences need to be ministered to.
Listening leads us to new and creative ways to be in ministry
LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN

When we are truly seeking to be who God calls us to be, in ministry and discipleship, God provides the resources.
Remember…

God does not call us to be all things to all people.
Consider…
