Volunteer Leadership

At our January 2023 congregation-wide meeting, the church approved an exciting Strategic Plan setting forth the bold vision for how SGC can meet the spiritual needs of the modern world. One of the first steps in that Plan was crafting a more nimble, efficient, and engaging lay leadership structure supported by a new staffing model. Below is the visualization of our new model. The theme for this year as we live into this new model is “Delineation & Grace.” It’s going to take a lot of patience, joy, gratitude, and grace as we figure out what this theoretical system looks like in the everyday.
