Casting a Vision at Pleasant Prairie

May 3rd, 2008 we had the opportunity to share with our home church, Pleasant Prairie Baptist Church, in determining and casting the church's vision. The Strategic Leadership Team, essentially the core group of our church, met and discussed and argued over who and where our church wants to be in five years. While it seemed, at times, that our discussions were circular and not advancing at the rate that we would have liked, our pastor and the entire team arrived at a conclusion that only the Holy Spirit could have led us to. Pleasant Prairie's five year vision is...

Pleasant Prairie Baptist Church desires to serve Christ as empowered and directed by the Holy Spirit through prayer and His Word demonstrating the reality of Christ through ministry teams reaching our community and beyond.

As our pastor remarked, that is an outward vision. I believe that the Lord is preparing Pleasant Prairie to turn northeastern Cass County upside down for the Lord! Observe and learn!
