Team Meeting Notes
June 9, 2009

Where do we go from here?

We do deeper rather than wider

  • We invest in Bhutanese Leaders
  • We offer a few families a financial and emotional safety net
  • We encourage mentoring relationships

We go there more than they come "here"

  • Fine ESL partners who are already doing it
  • Plan small events at the complex
  • Small group Bible studies
  • Drive our friends where they need to go

We listen more

  • Listen to the felt needs of our Bhutanese leadership team
  • Listen for clues to their spiritual discovery
  • Respond to specific needs based on their priorities

We build infrastructure at Trinity

  • Finances - be generous
  • Encourage and pray for our leaders
  • Support ministries by sending or being helpers
  • Pray for the new pastor
  • Say thank you

Lean forward

  • Think about a vision for the future
  • Build partnerships with other churches and organizations
  • Be faithful to fulfill our God-given responsibility
  • Live within our resources

Next Steps

  • Bhutanese Exposition - July 26
  • Mentoring Training TBA
  • Bhutanese Teacher Training - start process
  • Abounding Services ESL at Restoration Church - Aug 1
