Q&A
a.
Introductions
b.
Question
period
i. What is your responsibilities/vision
for next year?
1.
Michael
– year ministry is to pour into year leaders and care for them, year leading is
starting point for new leaders, cultivate environment of support, interyear
relations (interyear PM). Current vision is for year leaders to share burdens
in a more consistent manner.
2.
Christian
– take care of men’s night and guys in fellowship, choose and care for men’s
DGL. Vision for men to be cultivators, guys have a lot of doubt, develop men
who are Christ-like servant leaders, self-discipline/accountability/encouragement
3.
Nate
– focus on discipleship and mentorship, want to see atmosphere of
accountability in fellowship, providing more opportunities for fellowship to
serve
4.
Elliot
– give God glory in everyday life and not just music, in charge of worship
leaders and teams. Worship as more of a lifestyle than just music, worship that
occurs within a person rather than constrained to a certain place/time
5.
Adriane
– everything Christian said but for the women, preparing DGL and women for
anything that comes their way, equipping DGL with wisdom for how to deal with
DGs.
6.
Tracy
– admin (emails, room booking), organization and communication, reviving
blog??, point person for issues/concerns with fellowship, gauging health and
responses of fellowship, main support system for rest of comm
ii. Why did you agree to the role?
1.
Michael
– apprehensive at first b/c didn’t see himself in the role/ministry, gifted
with talking and 1-on-1 meetings, discerned to use gifts to build others and
developing those gifts, year ministry is an opportunity to serve fellowship and
allow Spirit to work
2.
Christian
– loves CCF and hearing about their lives, place he can be himself, best
community he could have J, although not perfect he will strive for that,
wants to use talents/gift and not hide it, sees a lot of potential in men and
want to help develop it
3.
Nate
– no greater honour than to serve God in a leadership role, lots of
fear/anxiety/doubts but wanted to take step in faith, uncertainty about where
God will lead fellowship but has trust in God and looking forward to seeing
ministries grow.
4.
Elliot
– worship is big part of his life, felt peace when playing music, joy to
worship God and want others to experience the same, God doesn’t call the
qualified but qualifies the called
5.
Adriane
– God told her to do it, heart for year ministry but would not work well in
that ministry, cannot hand-hold DGL which is what she tends to do
6.
Tracy
– originally asked to do Women’s, cares deeply for women’s ministry but
strengths not best used in that ministry, role was intimidating but gifts fit
this role better
iii. To Christian: Any concrete plans to
improve CCF men’s ministry?
1.
Men’s
needs don’t really differ from women’s and also don’t change that much. Need
for vulnerability.
2.
Next
year: stratifying DGs but details not worked out yet. Move DGL towards similair
direction and work towards common goal. Taking care of DGL by meeting 1-on-1
either physically, spiritually, content, or conversation. Proper training for
DGL, use summer to help train DGL to better serve fellowship. Use DGL to hear
feedback from guys

comm?

Nate
