description
• As a Parish, we have now committed most of our financial capital to the new facilities described in our Vision 2010 proposals • We have done this in the full knowledge that our ongoing financial position is perilous without a big increase in our regular income from Planned Giving • But we believe it is essential if the words of our mission statement are to become a reality in our community of Fleet: “Welcoming all in our community into the love of Christ” So, what should we, as the Church in Fleet, be working towards in the next 10 years to fulfil our Mission Statement? What practical steps can help us make that a reality?

o it buys us time...
� ...but it fails to tackle our fundamental problem and will not secure our future
� Or a new approach to Stewardship?
o Not a ‘quick-hit’ campaign
o Something we think about, pray about, talk about in our services, meetings, newssheets, website etc
o A long-term programme...
