Administration Meeting Minutes - December 6, 2008

Attendees:
Mike Brady, James Davis, Matt Hind, Kim Hind, Kelley Thomas, Josh Wilson

Next Meeting:
Saturday, January 10, 8:00 AM

Purpose of Administration Meeting:

Developing leaders that can follow through with excellence in all of the five fold ministries as we coordinate body wide activities and serve each other as unto the Lord

• Discipleship
• Evangelism
• Worship
• Service
• Fellowship

Specific Topics discussed this month:

Finances
Commercial loan due this month, will renew at Fifth Third unless anyone objects.

Income and expenses are both over the projected budget for 2008 but we are operating at a greater than $10K deficit for the year. We spent more on staff, missions and benevolence than we did on the building or ministries for our own children.

We reviewed the third pass of the budget and discussed the direction of investing more in the people and less in the building. Our attempt to do that in 2008 moved in the right direction, but we didn't quite get there. Areas where we would like to do better are the youth, children, preschool and the local community.


Building and Grounds:
The second floor of the education wing has been re-purposed in the last month. We now have a lounge in between the library and the pastor's study. In fact, the lounge made a great meeting room for the seven us meeting today.

John Rice has the talent and willingness to plan and lead us in making a Rain Garden in the spring. More details will be available as the spring approaches. If you are interested in helping, be sure to let John know about it.

We will be doing some of the Rain Garden work before and after the Tent Meetings in April, so we might be able to incorporate that into our partnering with TBNA and community awareness.


Evangelism:
Mike reminded us of things we will be doing to prepare the nets for the Tent meetings:

1. Read the book that Mike and Josh have been passing out.
2. Prepare our small groups for growth ( More groups, Smaller groups before March )
3. Abigail to provide CCC Training: January 23 and 24
   
4. Four Monthly Prayer events for this purpose (Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr)
5. Block out calendar: April 22nd to 29th

There was also discussion about tying the Tent Meetings and community canvassing to the VBS at the end of June. Using our resources to minister to the children in the community is one of the best investments we can make.

Mortgage Reduction Report

As we prepare to discuss the 2009 budget at the Administration team meeting, the outlook for paying off our building loan is late 2009 or early 2010.

We were able to pay more on the loan during 2008 because of a special offering given to the Tatesbrook by the River of Life. This special offering was not stipulated but they gave it after prayerfully considering that God had led them to help us get out of debt as long as we were meeting the rest of our budget. We are grateful to the River of Life and were able to apply all of that offering to the debt.

A second reason that we were able to recover from the trend of making the minimum payments that we started in 2007 was to have lower building repair and utility costs without any heavy users of the building.

Work completed in October and November

Without a scheduled workday, the building and grounds has been kept up a little at a time. If I missed anything, let me know. A few more things have stopped working since October, but overall, I think we are just keeping up with the building.

Outside:

• Pull out last nine stumps from the bushes ( James, Emily, Aaron, Joshua )
  
• Install small lights that shine on the front walkways ( Kevin )
  
• Replace outdoor lights and set timers ( Scott, Gadis, Kevin Thomas [ after Gayle highlighted the darkness ] )
  
• Scrape grass out of parking lot ( James, Emily, Aaron and Joshua got this started [ lots more to do ] )
• Patch up holes in the downspout tiles ( Kevin )
• Rehang the gutter over the sidewalk ( Kevin )

Sanctuary:

• Move the pews back into the sanctuary ( Kevin and Travis )
• Get ceiling fan and new light in foyer working with switch ( Scott )
  

Education Wing:

• Reglue loose step covers in stairwells ( Kevin Thomas )

• Service
• Fellowship

Specific Topics discussed this month:

Finances
Income and expenses are tracking over the projected budget for 2008 as an overall total. There were some big 2008 budget misses that all balance out in the total. We spent more on missions and benevolence than we did on the building or ministries for our own children. As we prepare the 2009 budget, we are hearing more requests for spending on missions and no request for increasing ministry to our own children. The elders are prayerfully considering whether this shift in direction in 2009 happened to us out of others felt needs or whether God has intended us to shift our focus from "person to person" to "nation to nation". God may be telling us it is time for us to take our own children from "nation to nation".


Building and Grounds:
Reverend Williams and his church of thirty people disappeared, so Cornerstone will be moving over to the larger room and we will be splitting our crowded little Tatesbrook "Cleaning/Sound Equipment Closet" into two closets. With only two bodies sharing the building, I don't believe it is necessary to draw a picture.

There was discussion about Rain Gardens and we will all be praying about the need and praying for someone to take charge of this. The location needs to be where water runs off of a parking lot or building and can eventually reach a storm drain to provide an improvement to the water quality of the area. The only location that is close to qualifying our land is behind the church. We already have a grass garden there, but establishing a Rain Garden might help us to be more diligent in keeping that back area of our building cleaned up. James noticed that a swing set was added to our collection of basketball goals, herbies, rosies, and remains of the shed. Lou Gregory and the TBNA is interested in this project as well. He would like to see a "Tatesbrook" sign at the corner of Trent and Appian. It helps the community to be a community when they have a name.


Evangelism:
In preparation for the Tent meetings and canvassing that will be occurring in the spring, Mike shared some goals, dates and training with us to help us prepare the nets for the Tent meetings:

1. Read the book the book that Mike and Josh have been passing out.
2. Prepare our small groups for growth ( More groups, Smaller groups before March )
3. Abigail to provide CCC Training: January 23 and 24,
   
4. Block out calendar: April 22nd to 29th

Praise & Worship:
Kent's new team is doing well and the members of the group are getting to understand their new leader in the team formation stages of development. It is exciting to witness the results. In the first few weeks we have discovered that one of our monitors (purchased by Cornerstone or LCF) was damaged and we need to replace it. It may have been damaged long ago, but we just noticed it within the last month.

Recording the service :
The fact that we did not record David Ravenhill's message a few weeks ago has surfaced a need by all those who serve in various roles on Sunday morning during the service. Those that serve in the nursery, preschool, childrens' church, prayer, or any other Sunday Morning role that keeps someone from hearing the sermon would like to have the sermon recorded and available to be picked up after the service.

• Worship
• Service
• Fellowship

Specific Topics discussed this month:

Finances
Income and expenses are tracking near the projected budget.

Share the load (Adjustments for 2009):
If you are looking for something different to do, there are many roles that are being filled with people that have been serving in those roles for 5, 10 and 15 years that are more than willing to hand over the work to someone new. There are many new faces that are stepping up to these roles and we are excited about the changes that will bring to our body.

• Financial Secretary ( 10 years )
• Treasurer ( 13 years )
• College Ministry ( 0 years )
• Youth [ Middle School or High School ] ( 0 years )
  
• Praise & Worship ( 18 years )
• Elders ( 0 years )
  
• Minister of Mercy ( 0 years )
• Building Maintenance ( 0 years )

Discipleship:
Groups have been functioning for about two years as North Lex, South Lex, and Nicholasville geographic locations. Join a group if you haven't already!

Paul Barth brought up the opportunity of supporting a couple of Navigators that were significant contributors to Tracy's discipleship. Please be praying about what we need to do in regard to support for Justin and Erica Zauflick.


Building and Grounds:
After much prayer for a small community church that we could assist by providing a meeting location, it appears that the Lord has Reverend Williams to us with a local body of about thirty people. The costs associated with the building have dropped significantly now that there is no longer a school and coffee shop, so we need to continue to listen for God's will about the next step that we take. Mike has stated that he would like to keep Friday and Saturday nights free for various spontaneous and planned Tatesbrook fellowships.

There was discussion about improvements that could be made in the next year including a community garden. This is a great idea but would require a significant investment by both the community and the church so it is not something to enter lightly. The best location would be to build up a garden behind the church. We would need to repair the faucet and build the garden this fall if we want to have the community involved in the spring.


Evangelism:
After a great summer of evangelism from all the folks that headed to camps and countries near and far, we are now privileged to pray for Mikey and Cindy as they minister in Slovakia. In just a few months, we can also begin praying for a third missionary in Africa that will attract a swarm of people from Lexington next Spring.

Canvassing the neighborhood with Gary Wilson is something that we have been praying for. Although the original plan has not occurred, we are thankful for the body of thirty people that has canvassed the neighborhood and pray for their growth as well. Gary Wilson and his friend hope to come in the Spring now.

Little steps of improvement

After prayer on Monday night, several of the men stood on the sidewalk and described what we thought the front of the building would look like next summer. Duane sent me some pictures that helped to explain what he thought that we talked about so I decided to post the progression that we are making in little steps.


Here is where we started from in 2007. The bushes surrounded the front of the building like a moat used to protect castles centuries ago. A precariously perched sign also labeled the building instead of the people.

Here is what the front of the building looks like in 2008. It is clearly more open and inviting and represents a clean slate that we can work with.


Here is just one example of something that we could do in 2009. People have mentioned many elements that could be added like fountains, brooks, and stone walls. When 2009 rolls around, I am sure there will be more ideas from the church and from the community.

Two weeks of Work Complete

I think we have enough of the outdoor work done so that the Ice Cream Social will go well next Saturday.

Landscaping: Before

Moving Resources from Structure to People

From 2000 to 2007, Tatesbrook was spending an increasing percentage of its resources (both time and money) on giving to other organizations. While this is a very Christian thing to do, it also reduces the amount of ministry we can do as a relational body.

Having a men's retreat and a women's retreat in the fall were wake up calls to our body and it was fairly obvious that we need to spend more corporate time together in fellowship instead of individual time edging, fixing, trimming, finding, moving stuff, throwing stuff away, investigating, negotiating, administrating, etc.

This is an exciting time as Tatesbrook transitions from paying old debt and servicing the needs of an aging building to ministering to His Kingdom within our body and the community that we serve. As we do that, I am confident that He will provide the income to meet the needs of these ministries.

Sanctuary Allocation

Fellowship Hall Allocation

Education Wing Allocation

Mortgage Reduction Report

During 2007, we had to address some building repairs and maintenance that were necessary to help us continue to help other groups in our community without breaking our budget. If our offerings were closer to our budget, we could have made additional payments to the mortgage as we have in other years, but we were stretched too thin this year.

In 2008, we hopefully will have fewer demands from the building, but I am not budgeting any extra payments because the income from users of the building will be reduced.

2008 Building Usage Rates and Agreement

Usage Rates:

• $150 for entire building ( Extra deposit of $100 for single time users, ie. weddings )
  
• $75 for sanctuary or fellowship hall
• $50 for small group room

There are many groups that share the building at 3724 Appian Way. In order to keep the building secure, clean, comfortable, safe and usable for everyone, we have put together the following clean up and lock up responsibilities that need to be completed after each use of the building:

Sanctuary:

• Clean paper and trash out of pews. ( if trash was there before you got there, report to Jackie Eby )
• Place lost and found items in the lost and found cabinet in the basement
• Return Hymnals and Bibles to closet
• Check trash can in sound room
• Vacuum if necessary

Front Foyer

• Pick up paper and trash
  
• Place lost and found items in the lost and found cabinet in the basement
• Sweep foyer if necessary
• Check trash can by the water fountain

Bathrooms ( 2 upstairs, 4 downstairs )

• Pick up paper and trash
• Empty trash cans if more than half full

Fellowship Hall and Kitchen

• Move all chairs and tables to the wall
• Sweep with dust mop
• Pick up trash and empty trash can
