Strategic Plan

In 2020 the Uniting Church Synod of SA has embarked on a journey to identify its key missional priorities and directions (Strategic Plan) for the next 3-5 years.

2021 is the beginning of something new.

As the South Australian Synod we are committed to being the transforming presence of God, committed to discipling and growing the Church, advocating for justice in the world, being thriving communities of faith, gathering to hear Jesus' message to us and equipping ourselves to respond.

Shaping our Future - Strategic Priorities holds us together and connects us to the common purpose of being the Church.

Collaboratively we are all the Synod and there is a place for each one of us. Shaping the Future will work best if we are in conversation, if we can imagine ourselves as an effective team, if we are committed to a common purpose.

Survey 2020

We thank all of those that responded to our recent Strategic Plan Survey and are pleased to provide a summary of the results which can be downloaded here.

For those respondents to the survey that wished to be contacted for a further conversation, we invite you to email synod@sa.uca.org.au if you would like to provide further feedback to the development of the plan.

Over the coming months we will be compiling all of the feedback as we seek to identify and understand the key themes that will form the basis of the next Synod of South Australia Strategic Plan.

 

Working Group

A Working Group has been formed and is intentionally seeking to explore where you believe God is calling the Synod to give emphasis to its life and witness at this time.

The Working Group members are:

  • Rev Andrew Robertson
  • Rev Felicity Amery
  • Rev Sue Page
  • Tracey Bost
  • Moderator Bronte Wilson
  • Ashlee Littleford
  • Rev Dr Ian Price
  • Rev Nick Patselis
  • Leanne Davis
  • Bridget Ransome.

Please continue to pray for the Uniting Church, its leaders and its activity. Please pray for the Working Group as we listen to God and to the church and prepare some recommendations for the meeting of our Synod in February 2021.

Blessings,
