Wednesday October 20

7:00 pm – 8:00 pm: Wednesday Conversations - Calling All Futurists!

We are an informal group of people that want to use the foresight methodology for BAUUC. We set this (working) goal for ourselves in our first meeting: Develop a clear image of what the BAUUC community looks like in five (5) years.
The Foresight tasks that will support this goal
• Revisit vision, potentially engage congregation in appreciative inquiry as a process
• Revisit congregational values, potentially engage congregation in values inventory assessment
• Environmental scanning: Futures scanning for insight in areas such as spirituality, Clear Lake area, demographics, church technologies, social changes, and other external drivers
• We will need to add other internal data to this mix and develop alternative ideas for our future
Our own Terry Grim, the futurist expert will lead this conversation. The group will meet once a month on Wednesdays at 7:00pm via Zoom. Please come and join us in this important task at this time in our community’s transition to a new future. No experience is necessary. Check your email for the zoom link.
