Abstract
  • The thesis of this project is that a discouraged, declining, depressed congregation with low self-esteem can be molded into an effective instrument for mission through a program designed to increase effectiveness of the administrative structures by which that church does its work. The study was conducted over a two-year period by measuring the degree of dissatisfaction prevalent, then providing events and activities designed to give personnel feelings of achievement and self-worth. After two years, further testing disclosed a measurable increase in the perception of effectiveness of the committees. In that sense the project was a success, although the renewal which was engendered is an open-ended one whose continuation should greatly enhance the future of the church.
