Build a Foundation

Creating an asset-based approach to ministry in any community is not a go-it-alone project. Gaining support and momentum for your initiative is critically important, as is recruiting leadership that has both passion and the time and energy to put toward this longer-term initiative.

As you put your leadership and working team into place, be intentional and discerning about your choices. In other words, don’t short-cut this process; it is the backbone of the entire project.

While you can take these steps in the sequence that makes the most sense in your context, we find that most communities choose to take them in this order:

• Generate support with existing leadership
• Discern and call a Facilitator
• Work with leadership and the facilitator to discern and call your team
