Conversations Class - a new series of blog posts

1/20/2015

The posts in the Conversations Class category (under Categories, on the right side of the page) contain writings for and by the members of the "Changing the Conversation" class taught by Eloise Fredrickson using a book of that name as the theme. We are looking at the huge changes that have taken place in mainline Protestant churches over the last several years and trying to figure out how to respond to them in a way that will deepen and sustain the life of our congregation.

I just talked to another Presbyterian church member in N. Calif. They have remodeled their campus based on changing needs of the congregation. Has energized the membership dramatically. They are on their 3rd campaign, all of which were for several million dollars and have all been OVERSUBSCRIBED!

Used an outside consultant and went through problem/solution process each time which, in part resulted in the alterations to their campus.

Anyone been in Fellowship Hall, used the kitchen, or a classroom lately? Smaller groups needing nice facilities outside the sancturary? Changing needs, new electronics and changing space. Could be a parallel.
