Vital Church Tools: Mission Vital Signs
Five Practices of Fruitful Congregations
By Robert Schnase
Mission Vital Signs are NOT about numbers!
Mission Vitals ARE about having a robust ministry evidenced by five fundamental practices critical to all vibrant, growing, fruitful congregations.
“These edgy words focus us on the appropriate work that helps us fulfill the mission of church. Congregations offer the invitation and welcome of Christ, provide worship that connects us to God and to one another, offer opportunities for people to grow in Christ by learning in community, relieve suffering and improve the conditions of people in need through service and mission, and teach people to give of themselves.”
