Local Congregations Can Report Vital Signs of
Discipleship in 2008
Fruitfulness is evidence we are achieving our mission. More professions
of faith, more people in worship, and more members actively in mission
mean we are better equipping congregations to make disciples for the
transformation of the world to the glor of God! Improving our
connectional generosity helps us live out our belief in extravagant
generosity and connectional ministry, undergirding mission and ministry
beyond the local church.
Each local congregation will report these vital signs of discipleship
through an internet-accessible system this year. Your secretary or
designated person can go on line at txcumc.org to enter your church's
"Vital Signs of Discipleship". We are excited that these
measures will provide benchmarks and give us reason to celebrate our
success!
- How to get to the right webpage:
- Log on www.txcumc.org
- Click on "Administration" in the menu at the top
- Click on "Center for Connectional Resources"
- Click on "Vital Signs of Discipleship" on the left
