On November 22, 2015 after several months of study and an onsite visit, the Minnesota South District through Dr. Phillip Johnson presented Concordia Lutheran Church with the Transforming Congregations Prescriptions (Appendix A). Two of the prescriptions focused on aspects of governance. Ten months later, I accepted the Divine Call to Concordia Lutheran Church. The leadership informed me that my priority was to implement the Transforming Congregations Prescriptions. The scope of my study is limited to Concordia Lutheran Church. I will focus on the implementation of the prescriptions that dealt with vision, mission, and the governance at Concordia Lutheran Church. In the following sections, I will describe the problem, purpose, and process of this research. The problem that is addressed is to revise the governance structure so that the congregation can fulfill its mission and understand the key issues in the Office of the Ministry that support the process. This project will not provide a new plan for congregational renewal. The purpose of this study is to provide lessons learned from Concordia Lutheran Church to other leaders who are working to renew declining congregations. It also seeks to provide insights from studying the Office of the Ministry that affect pastoral leadership. The process used to reach this goal is to implement, with the participation of the congregation, a new vision, mission, and governance model, develop lessons learned, and review the doctrine of the Office of the Ministry to understand the implications for pastoral leaders as well as congregations. The experiment will be evaluated by determining if the goals of Transforming Congregations Prescriptions were met. I will identify lessons learned through three semi-structured interviews with key participants in the process and by developing a philosophy of ministry statement. This will assist other leaders in their work to renew congregations.
