Last week, the Mission Board gathered for a meeting filled with important updates and discussions. We were honored to welcome guests from the Campus Strategic Planning Committee, who provided an in-depth update on their ongoing work. This dedicated team has been working tirelessly behind the scenes and engaging with small groups to envision the best ways to utilize our campus.

The Campus Strategic Planning Committee is passionate about this project—feel free to reach out to any of them to learn more about their efforts. They are Brian Bennett, Bob Callander, Leslie Geoghegan, Trey Flowers, Maureen Johnson, Becky Mosley, Deb Rakestraw , and John Richardson and Leigh Turner as ex- officio board representatives.

We were also joined by Justin Key, our Finance Chair, who offered valuable guidance to Ministry Team Leaders as they begin planning for the 2025 Budget. Beyond discussing our financial stewardship, we also focused on the upcoming Ministry Fair. This event is a wonderful opportunity for everyone in our church community to share their talents and time in ways that truly embody our mission:

Worship with Hope, Grow with Love, and Serve with a Passion for Justice

Ministry Teams are an integral part of spiritual growth, unity, and outreach at Beargrass. Their dedicated work is guided by our mission to Worship with Hope, Grow with Love, and Serve with a Passion for Justice. We’re eagerly looking forward to our next Ministry Team Night on Monday, September 16th. If you’re curious about what we do or have a particular team you’d like to visit, please reach out to Leigh Turner, our Mission Board Chair. We’d love to have you join us.
