The document outlines the vision, mission, values, strategy, and measures for an organization called Open Table Community Church. It discusses drafting a mission statement focused on passionately loving God, intentionally sharing life, and loving neighbors. The core values are identified as proclamation, equipping, multiethnicity, life together, worship, and being missional. The strategy is to create a bridge between internal and external ministry through programs like small groups and partnering with other organizations. Measures of success include participation rates and multicultural interaction both inside and outside the church. The vision emphasizes the importance of clarity and direction over just being busy, and of bringing vision to life through people rather than just writing it down.

The process of developing a vision involves envisioning prayer, discovering passion, and either expanding the mission statement, building on core values, or modeling after another vision. The strategic planning team and pastor are tasked with drafting the vision statement, which is then communicated through the pastor's example, sermons, and other methods suited to that ministry.

Malphurs chapter 8. reaching the church's community. rev. su 14
This document discusses strategies for churches to reach their local communities. It defines a church's community as its geographical sphere of spiritual influence.

The document then provides steps to conduct a community analysis including determining boundaries, demographics, and communicating results. It also advises conducting a similar analysis of the church to understand how to reach the community.
