TIM, Together in Mission, met again this week. We focused on looking at trends in all four congregations surrounding human and financial resources as they are shown through average attendance, income and expenses, and other financial assets. The group will share these trend reports with all four congregational councils and then wider in the congregations in the future. All four congregations have similar downward trends in resources. However, if we look at the resources of the four congregations together, our resources remain strong. Together, we are equipped to be a vibrant Lutheran witness in this community. Additional next steps for this group are to meet with a building consultant from the ELCA Mission Investment Fund on July 17 and to pray and think about a vision for one Lutheran entity in Jamestown.
