Strategic Planning
We have been working hard to articulate our hopes and dreams for our parish.
From beginnings at parish dessert gatherings, to two different iterations of a Strategic Planning Committee, to the Vestry, we have created a Strategic Plan for St. Barnabas.
Creating this blueprint for our future is a milestone to celebrate.
Now the challenge is to transform the plan into reality. The only way we can truly make this work is with your direct involvement.
All the ideas, all the pages, all the words can be condensed into two key objectives:
We have taken these goals and sorted them into six areas:
Each Sunday, May 7-21, we are sharing the summary with all parishioners. Two areas are being introduced during announcement time each week and then talking together over coffee after services.
A summary of the plan is available in the narthex. Take one. Read it. Which areas do you feel strongly about? Which areas would you be able to help with?

All the ideas, all the pages, all the words can be condensed into two key objectives:
- To reenergize our parish through the enhancement of our worship services, timely communication, and the expanded use of our most important resource - our parishioners.
- To achieve financial stability through the implementation of internal control systems, reenergized stewardship efforts & support, and prudent fiscal management.
We have taken these goals and sorted them into six areas:
- Worship & Congregational Needs
- Congregational Involvement
- Communication & Accountability
- Reaching Out from St. Barnabas
- Achieving Financial Stability
- Management Systems & Controls
