Planning
Cornerstone recognizes the importance of effectively planning for ministry. The process of planning is just as important as the plan itself. No matter where you are in the current planning stage, Cornerstone will successfully channel your efforts into a unique program that fits your needs. Using any combination of the following processes, we design and assist your ministry in getting ready for next steps.
Readiness Planning (Feasibility)
This facilitating process allows Cornerstone to work with leadership and your ministry to sharpen the vision for the future and clarify how the proposed project fits into the scope of what God has planned. Through surveys and interviews, we are able to measure the attitudes and opinions of your constituency, determine what financial goals are attainable, and verify the proposed case statement for a generosity campaign. In addition, we provide advanced marketing to the constituency and collect data to determine the type of funding initiative or campaign that ought to be conducted. The outcome of this planning process is to assure support with recommendations for successful implementation.
Project Planning
The outcome goal of this three-phase process is to prepare for a capital appeal at the congregational level. Cornerstone guides leadership by facilitating discussion among congregational members and seeking input from the same. Preliminary financial plans, an appeal theme, interactive discussion sessions, communications, and adoption of project plans and timetable are outcomes of this planning. Consensus building is stressed.
Strategic Ministry Planning
In this facilitating process, Cornerstone assists leadership and the ministry to sharpen the vision for the future and clarify how it can initiate new ministry programs to share the Gospel. It includes a variety of data gathering options to garner understanding and support of the ministry. Through workshops, discussions and input, more specific ministry plans begin to evolve with the adoption of an overachieving strategic ministry plan. A communication piece is developed as well as an accountability component for follow through. When completed, supporters are engaged and inspired to move forward with ministry plans. The planning process is unique for the congregation and school.
