I suggest a title slide to this presentation of "We Are Our Savior's." It could be this slide or a separate one with only the title.I wonder if we need the "Welcome" clip art on this slide. One option would be to replace it with the title of the presentation, "We Are Our Savior's."I also suggest that we get a clean copy of the OSL logo from Bill for use in this presentation and place it consistently on each slide, perhaps making it part of the defined background.
OSL Mission & Values
Our Mission: Our Savior’s is a people forgiven in Christ whose mission is to proclaim Christ and
nurture faith that connects with everyday life.
Our Core Values shape how we live: Worship Service
Learning Generosity
Community
Because we share “one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of us all” (Eph. 4:5), we cherish opportunities to build up the one body of Christ through
fellowship, learning, service, and worship together.

My goal on this slide was to tighten up the narrative a little bit.I also re-stated to piece about our core values in the slide itself.
OSL is YOUR church family …
God has blessed us in giving us what we need and also a purpose to serve our neighbor … in
following this guidance we offer various services, supports, and resources …
rgehring
I think we tread on thin ice theologically when we put so much emphasis on the self when it comes to defining the purpose of the church. I believe a more faithful approach is to focus on how God has grafted us into the community, giving us both what we need and a purpose to serve our neighbor.
In a word, OSL is…
Belonging = Priceless
rgehring
I'm a fan of the maxim, Less is More. For this slide I propose fewer words and that we stick to one primary message on the slide and let the narrative lead us to the question we're trying to answer. Perhaps pictures depicting belonging at OSL could be a part of the slide.

RETIRE OUR MORTGAGE
....so we can live our mission (going) forward
…OUR 10 step plan
1. Two successful capital campaigns (2007, 2011)
2. Mortgage interest in annual operating budget (2015–2021)
I've reduced the number of words on this slide to make it more visually appealing and I've tried to make each item consistent in format with the others in the list.The dates of the first two capital campaigns need to be confirmed in #1.
Let’s set the stage for future generations to serve …

I propose a new title for this slide that lifts up the overall title of the presentation as a way of bringing the focus back to community.
Everyone has a part to play … …
…with God, all things are possible.

Again, less is more. Let the narrative fill in the blanks.
