The following is a revised version of the vision statement discussed at the May Church Council meeting. The vision team will ask your approval to implement it as our Trinity vision.
TRINITY UMC VISION STATEMENT
GRAND ISLAND, NY
Vision is not about present reality. Vision reflects our dreams and aspirations.
We envision sharing the Good News of Jesus with unchurched friends and people in the community.
We envision enriching the faith of established and new believers through worship services, Bible study, other study opportunities Sundays and weekdays, prayer, special events, fellowship and small groups.
We envision creative, inspiring, reverent worship that shares Jesus’ message for today’s world.
We envision helping children, youth, and adults to discover their gifts and talents, and equipping them to grow and serve Christ in ministry within the church and community. Our goal is for all members to be disciples and share God’s word with others. We will provide opportunities to express the presence of Jesus in our lives through fellowship, music, and service. We will build and encourage our intergenerational community to love and care for each other.
We envision recruiting and training disciples and leaders to support inspired worship, effective education, and service.
We envision a church community where people of all ages feel welcome and become messengers of God’s word to all persons they meet.
We envision our church facilities fully utilized and accessible for the sharing of the Good News. We will provide space and resources to accomplish this ministry.
