Vision ImplementationVision ImplementationVision ImplementationVision Implementation

Vision produces results as we live it out! Vision is a clear picture of the future as it can and should be.

• We envision Santuck Baptist Church to become an area wide church seeing hundreds come to faith in Christ. These new believers are then discipled to live and serve the Gospel.

• We envision Santuck to become a Discipling and Missions Training Center to develop and deploy missionaries from our congregation around the world. • We see new church plants and partnerships in areas of great need for the unchurched. • We see dynamic life-changing small groups spread throughout our county strengthening believers and reaching the lost. • We envision a larger facility that will accommodate our growth and be accessible to all who desire to come. This facility will provide ample rooms for worship, Sunday school, small groups, growth groups, training programs, seminars, concerts, and other such meetings. • We desire to grow as God prospers us and uses us to reach a lost and dying world. As the church grows larger, it must continue to grow smaller through small groups. While we do not believe that “bigger is better”, numerical growth is a byproduct of effective evangelism and discipleship.

Our Vision Implementation Teams consist of:

Community Outreach/Evangelism, DiscipleCommunity Outreach/Evangelism, DiscipleCommunity Outreach/Evangelism, DiscipleCommunity Outreach/Evangelism, Disciple----making, Family Ministry, Leadership, Missionsmaking, Family Ministry, Leadership, Missionsmaking, Family Ministry, Leadership, Missionsmaking, Family Ministry, Leadership, Missions

Mobilization, Prayer, and West CampusMobilization, Prayer, and West CampusMobilization, Prayer, and West CampusMobilization, Prayer, and West Campus This is our dream – our vision of what God is saying should and must be!

We have a meeting Monday, October 2, 2017 for all our Vision Implementation Teams to come together and plan the next

steps of implementation. This meeting will begin at 6:00 pm in the Fellowship Hall with a light dinner. We need all team

members to be present if at all possible. Everyone is invited to come and be a part of implementing our vision by serving on

one of these teams. If you plan to attend please contact the church office so that we can properly prepare.

These are truly exciting days at Santuck!
