We canvass effectively, reaching everyone in our congregation. We pledge financial support and we meet our commitment. We design effective fundraising projects, staff them with enough people, and bring in the funds that we need. The congregation uses its human resources wisely, prioritizing projects and distributing responsibility widely. We have procedures for handling the recurring situations in our life as a congregation so that committee members don't have to reinvent the process each time.
People communicate ideas and feelings relevantly and appropriately.
We think about the needs of others and support others' goals, which arise from deep values. The congregation facilitates communication and cooperation among members and builds team spirit. In meetings we do business efficiently while paying attention to cooperative values such as sharing leadership and listening to those who want to speak. Our congregation regularly provides worship services that are appropriate to the congregation's needs. The subject and styles of our worship services address the needs of the whole person.
