Abstract

As churches struggle to minister to the changing society around them, what role should the Baptist association play in assisting the church to fulfill its mission? The purpose of this project is to provide a process to help Baptist associations develop a ministry plan that will assist member churches in meeting the ministry needs of their community. The project plan will use a study group from a selected association, the Palo Pinto Baptist Association, Texas, to act as a model. In a series of meetings, the project leader will teach the functions of an association and will lead the study group to answer four basic questions that will aid in the development of a ministry plan for the association. The study group will define the association's core values, determine the association's purpose and mission, assess the basic needs of member churches and their community and ascertain the most effective organizational structure for meeting these needs. Conclusions reached by the study group will be used to develop the association's plan of ministry, which will be presented to the Executive Board for consideration and implementation.
