Each strategic priority will have a Design Team of 5-7 people. The Design Team will come up with a proposal including multiple options and resource requirements that create, further develop, sustain the strategic priority.

At this training Rev. Karen Epps will train attendees on creating the final proposal. There will be ample time for the teams to begin their work. A light lunch will be provided at the beginning of the training. An optional love offering will be received for the lunch.
