L I V I N GClosely related to being a disciple is how we moveout into the world to use our gits in service. It isimpossible or a true disciple NOT to do this. Parto my aha moment during my sabbatical wasrecognizing that our church has been so programmatically driven that we were not actually givingyou time to live out your aith in your amilies andin your communities. We needed to start doingless so that you could be in the world," meeting

people, building relationships, and serving thosein need. The term living missionally has beenused oten, and we hope to make that an integralpart o who we are. We want to ollow the call oJesus to His disciples in Mark 3. We are to be withhim that he might send them out. This is the twoold rhythm o discipleship we come in, we goout into the world. And we do that over and overagain.

C O V E N A N TC O M M U N I T YThe third area o growth or us has been in understanding what it means to be a covenant community. God has made a covenant with us acommitment o love and grace and aithulness. Iwe are His people called to live together in community, then we are to have that same sense ocovenant commitment with each other. We are nothere because o what we get. We are in this com

FROM DR. DAVID SWANSON

As I look back on this past year o ministry,the word that comes to mind most oten is

J O Y .God, in His sovereign aithulness, has restoredour church and our ministry to a place o joy as weseek to build His Kingdom through First Presbyterian Church. Throughout the past year, our churchhas been renewed and reocused through ourthree primary vision elements. These are the areaswe will continue to develop in the next three years,so let me speak to them specically.

D I S C I P L E S H I PThis is the heart o what we want our church to be:a disciplemaking church. We want our church tobe lled with disciples o Jesus Christ, men andwomen who are equipped to live as His aithulollowers day in and day out. For that reason, whenwe survey our congregation this all, we will beasking you baseline questions about your spiritualpractice. Our belie is that those who truly ollow

Christ will be engaged weekly in the ollowing:worship, prayer, personal Bible reading, giving,serving, and taking part in covenant community.We want to be able to measure how that growsover time while learning to understand what toolsare the most useul in acilitating that growth. OurBareoot Church experience will be a great boostto our entire understanding o what personal discipleship really means.

munity because we are committed to the Kingdombuilding work o God in this place. As such, we sinkdown deep relational roots, we deal with confictsdirectly, and we do not get blown by the windbecause we dont like the drapes or we dont likea decision the Session made. We are investing inthis community o aith even as God has investedHis lie in us.

Out o these three things will fow the directionand uture o our church, and our prayer is that theHoly Spirit will continue to mold and shape us. Aswe think about our changing culture and what willunold in Orlando and this nation in the next tenyears, we want to be salt and light, a warm andhopeul place where people can come to nd living water. As such, I would like to see us do threethings:

BECOME DEBT-FREE BY THE END OF 2016.Currently, we owe just short o $4,000,000,primarily rom prior building and our departure rom the PCUSA. Lets aim to eliminatethat and move orward, nancially unemcumbered, into a new season o ministry!

BECOME MORE ENGAGED IN PERSONAL

EVANGELISM, reaching out to those who donot know Christ, such that we see a surge oadult baptisms. Yes, I would like to see us bap

tize 250 adults in a single year within ten years.

GROW THE KINGDOM OF GOD BY PLANT-

ING NEW CHURCHES IN PLACES WHERE

CHURCHES DO NOT EXIST. I want us to be oneo the leading churches in establishing this eort in the EPC, such that new churches are being ormed in locations where the gospel is notbeing heard, both in this country and beyond.

Your Session is already talking about these goals.Your pastors are zealous in their pursuit o whatGod wants or us. Join us in this. Worship. Pray.Read. Give. Serve. Engage. Our uture is bright aswe ollow the One who is the Light o Lie!With great expectation in Jesus or our uturetogether, I remain

Faithully yours in Christ,

"When considering all the reasons I am excited about my new posi

tion as Minister o Discipleship, one stands ar above the others:

helping develop and implement a plan or what we call life-on-life

discipleship. The call o Jesus to 'Go and make disciples' was given

to all who proess Christ as Lord, and it is my humble prayer thatin the coming years, we are calling and equipping more and more

members o our covenant community to become disciplemakers,

who will raise up more disciplemakers. I am also excited about

working with Bret in the development and implementation o a com

prehensive pathway o discipleship, in the hopes we will ulill the

vision o 'making disciples who light their world!' "

"I'm excited about my new role as Minister o Family Lie because it

seems very clearly Goddirected. Ater many months o searching or

a new Pastor o Discipleship with no candidates and ater the hiring

o Kevin Sheehan new Director o Student Ministries, I was won

dering what God had next or me now I know. God had a plan. I'm

also excited because I have the opportunity to work closely with my

good riend and brother in Christ, Kent. We have developed a strong

riendship and I believe the gits and talents God has given us will

compliment each other. With the renewed emphasis on discipleship,I look orward to being a part o what God is doing here at First Pres

and in all our lives."
