LCEF - MissionFlex

It’s true! You can frame a NEW constitution—one that streamlines your congregation’s ability to implement current and new ministries—in just ONE day!

Is your congregation hampered by a complex, inflexible constitution? Many existing constitutions and bylaws are rigid and inflexible, based on church organizational structures that don’t work in today’s rapidly changing cultural environment.

MissionFlex provides congregations a solution. In one day, the entire congregation makes the 10 fundamental decisions needed for the constitution, and small discussion groups are guided through the major decisions needed for the bylaws.

The entire process is led by an LCEF facilitator trained and skilled in organization leadership.

To learn how you can streamline the revision of your church constitution to make it easier for your congregation to respond to new ministry opportunities, complete our contact us form or call 1-800-843-5233 between 7:45 a.m. - 4:15 p.m., CT, Monday through Friday.

SMP Working With Redeemer Lutheran Church, Las Vegas, Nevada

The pastor at Redeemer said the great thing about SMP is that the lay people continually focus on their "best understanding of God's calling and plan" for them. If they are having a meeting and decisions are being made, someone in the group will usually call attention to their SMP and say, "Remember our plan. Is this decision a part of our plan? Is this the direction that God's calling and plan for us is pointing?"

Open Arms Provides Anchor for Families’ Lives

Building an Open Arms Child Development Center in Gainesville, Fla., the congregation at First Lutheran has opened a place that promises to be a neighborhood anchor, not just a day care for children.

With the help of LCEF’s Strategic Ministry Planning (SMP) service, the congregation developed a better understanding of God’s calling and set a comprehensive plan for the future. A capital campaign helped support the congregation’s new mission, and LCEF partnered with the congregation for the construction loan.

Do Your Meetings Need Focus?

LCEF’s Stategic Ministry Planning can bring efficiency to you. Does your church, school or agency spend time considering questions about land, facilities, staffing, programs, or money without a unified foundation for decision-making? See your leaders work more efficiently without stress or burnout and your boards and committees become more focused-with shorter, more productive meetings.

LCEF's Strategic Ministry Planning (SMP) helps your organization make decisions based on God's priorities for you and your ministry.
