Strategic Plan Approved

1 SEPTEMBER 2014 KNOLLWOOD BAPTIST CHURCH Vol. 57, No. 9 Dr. Kenneth J. Meyers Announces His Retirement Strategic Plan Approved On Sunday, August 3, Knollwood members voted to adopt a new strategic plan. This plan, developed by the Deacon Executive Council (DEC) and reviewed and approved by the entire diaconate, gives fresh voice to Knollwood s mission: Learning to Love and Live like Jesus with head, heart and hands. In addition, the plan outlines the guiding principles of our church as our own Affirmations of Faith. Unique to Knollwood, the strategic plan also includes a list of characteristics of the church that when taken together delineate what makes us singularly Knollwood - our Spiritual DNA. As with every useful strategic plan, this document concludes with key focus areas for our church s services and ministries. Every Knollwood committee, ministry team, task force and church group is encouraged to use these focus areas as the blueprint for determining activities for this year. For interesting and inspiring reading, go to resources/kbc-documents and review our Affirmations of Faith and Spiritual DNA for yourself. Knollwood, that is every one of us, now has a current guide that can help us focus our actions within our church and in our world. Dr. Ken Meyers and his lovely wife, Adrienne, have decided to retire to Florida to be nearer family, to welcome their first grandchild, and to pursue other professional opportunities, including some consulting work with the Alliance of Baptists. Ken s letter of resignation, sent earlier this week to the congregation, can be read online here: The exact date of Ken and Adrienne s departure has not yet been determined but is expected to be by Dec. 1. Please make time in the coming days to thank Ken and Adrienne for the profound difference they have made in the life and work of our congregation, even as we celebrate their new beginning. They will be sorely missed. ~Bob Setzer, Jr. Pastor Capital Campaign Phases II and III Update Phase II: Renovations With renovations of Buildings B and Noffsinger primarily complete, funds remain available for renovation of the kitchen, dining room and fellowship hall. A commercial kitchen company is reviewing the current kitchen equipment and space based on its use over the past two years. Input from members who have used the kitchen extensively in the past will be gathered. Renovation of these spaces is expected to take place next summer in an effort to minimize disruption to church activities. Phase III: Recreation and Community Ministry Building Under the leadership of the diaconate, our church continues to work together to discern how best to respond to a Knollwood family offering to fund a significant portion of the cost of a recreation and community ministry building. A work group appointed by the deacons to research best uses for such a building recommends that it house ministerial and administrative offices, a recreation and wellness area with a gymnasium; and spaces for community ministries, including space devoted to visual arts. The building as currently envisioned would serve identified needs within our congregation, as well as in our community. continued on page 6

2 SEPTEMBER SOUNDINGS FROM THE WOODED KNOLL Bambi and I couldn t be happier to be back from our sabbatical. That is due to no lack of learning, fun, and adventure during our time abroad. Our exploration of Celtic Christianity in various places around the United Kingdom was rich and rewarding. Still, perhaps the greatest blessing of travel, especially extended travel, is coming home. Being away gives one new eyes with which to appreciate the gifts and wonders of the life and work left behind. It didn t take us long to miss Knollwood. A lot. Worshiping with other congregations, whether in stately cathedrals or musty stone abbeys, was a blessing and encouragement. But those settings, however beautiful, left me pining for the open, transparent windows of the Knollwood sanctuary and the open, welcoming hands and hearts of the Knollwood family. Thank you for the gracious, generous gift of this sabbatical and the even greater gift of welcoming Bambi and me back as we rejoin you in the journey with Jesus. And a heartfelt thanks to an incredibly gifted staff and committed lay leaders who worked so hard this summer. Due to their competence and diligence, my absence registered about a 1.7 on the Richter scale of congregational disruption. Very few churches have such a deep bench of talent to draw upon. We are richly blessed. In that regard, I was saddened to learn that Ken and Adrienne s plans for a move back to Florida In Memoriam Clara Walker Temples Feb. 13, July 24, 2014 George William Bowman Feb. 12, Aug. 5, 2014 Calvin Stinson Knight July 19, Aug. 6, 2014 The members of Knollwood extend their deepest sympathy to the bereaved and pray for God s healing presence in their lives. have come to fruition. I had hoped that loss was still safely tucked away in the future. Still, I can t help but be happy for Adrienne and Ken, as this move seems shaped by God s timing: the upcoming birth of their first grandchild in Jacksonville and the chance for Ken to consult for the Alliance of Baptists, finish his book, and work to create a new community of radical hospitality. I will so miss Ken s enormous energy, drive, and passion for the Good News of Jesus, as well as Adrienne s gift of gracious hospitality. Still, these beloved friends and fellow pilgrims have certainly earned the right to act on some life dreams long-deferred due to the pressures of parish ministry. I am happy for them but sad for us. Finally, I am excited about the KBC Strategic Plan approved by the congregation on Sunday, Aug. 3. That plan provides a compelling vision and road map for our congregation s future. That plan will also help us assess and shape the Phase III opportunity as our congregation continues its discernment process about that possibility. I am deeply grateful to the Deacon Executive Council and the Phase III workgroup for the outstanding work they have done toward that end. Thomas Wolfe said, You can t go home again. I know what he meant, but I m glad, in my case, he was profoundly wrong. ~Blessings, Bob Setzer, Jr. Thank You I cannot find enough words to thank you for your love and support during this sad time. Our family expresses sincere thanks and genuine appreciation for your prayers, friendship and love. George loved the Knollwood Church and community; thank you for being an integral part of his life. Always, Betty Bowman There are many ways to show concern for one another s grief. From you, I have received them all.

Bible Study: By special request from a few Knollwood folks, a small group will meet for a foundational and very basic Bible study class beginning on Wednesday, Oct. 8. No prior knowledge of the Bible is expected or required. Dear Church Family, By now you know we are taking an early, semi-retirement to chase some initiatives we believe God has generated within us. The radical hospitality initiative (more later) will take place alongside a church. Also, the Alliance of Baptists asked me some time ago to advance a new initiative for church theological education. Then there is the book to write! And the word that our daughter is pregnant with our first grandchild was a grand additional surprise. All of this will take place in Jacksonville, Florida. Now we address the sadness of saying good-bye to a church that has been good to us through friendships, labor, and love. More later but know of our love and appreciation to you and the inspired Knollwood staff over these past ten years.

Mike Vestal A Man with Many Skills Starting a new job is sometimes scary in itself. If Mike Vestal had known all the things he would need to do when he started work at Knollwood Baptist Church in April of 1993, he may have been scared off and not taken the job. He was hired to take care of maintenance, but the job expanded over time to include getting a CDL License to drive the bus, learning to clean toilets, cooking food, washing dishes, running errands, picking up orders at Sam s Club, digging graves, filling the baptistry pool, and too many more to mention. Over the past twenty one years Mike has worked with three senior ministers, many associates, and JULY YTD MINISTRY INCOME AND EXPENSES 2014 YTD General Ministry Income* 2014 YTD General Ministry Expenses countless support staff. With each change came a new set of expectations and requirements. Each time, Mike adjusted to the new plan, developed new skills and kept Knollwood s facilities humming along. On Monday, Sept. 15, Mike will retire from KBC. Mike says retirement is a bit scary, as he has been working since he was a teenager. In retirement, Mike will again adjust to a new way of doing things and find new ways to put his skills to good use. Thank you Mike, for your twenty-one years at Knollwood. $674,917 *2014 Income includes $44,000 of 2014 gifts paid in $723,084 Mike with his long-time coworker, Demrice Hayes.

You might never have been, but you are because the party wouldn t have been complete without you. This year at SNYG we will be focusing on a theme entitled, You, Me and God. We ll trace how our individual lives, the lives of others, and God intertwine to create a really beautiful, fun party called life. We will spend time studying and thinking on multiple topics of life belief, relationships, friends, family, consumerism, technology, differences, mental and physical struggles, peer pressure, church, God and why any of it matters. We are going to walk together, engage life and God s living Spirit to live into this grand party in which we are all invited.
