All to Him I Owe

 Here at FBC there are seven principles that we use to determine what goes on our church calendar.

1. Giving people a telescopic view of events (a yearly calendar) helps them with the microscopic decisions during the week.

2. We must plan events with family units in mind – not just individuals.

3. Tradition is a form of communication. (the easiest things to communicate are the events we have done before)

4. Simple titles for events require less clarification in communication.

5. Every activity must support the mission statement of the church.

6. Blank spaces on the calendar do not mean the congregation isn’t doing anything.

7. Special activities have the potential to distract from the regular activities.

4 Words that should identify our calendar: RELAXED, TRADITIONAL, D0-ABLE, PURPOSEFUL

___

Before a event can go on the calendar we must know the answer to the following questions:

1. When is it happening?

2. Who is responsible for this event?

3. What is happening at this event?

4. How will we organize and do this event?

5. Why are we doing this?

To our FBC family…rest assured that we are not randomly throwing things on the calendar. There is a method to the madness.
