A pastoral transition is an ideal time to do Vision Planning in a small church. In this model, the Pulpit Nominating Committee is also the Vision Planning Group.

Workshops in this model need a 4-6 hour time period, usually overnight. They include:

• Understanding Vision Planning and Developing Core Values
• Pulpit Committee Operating Principles and Ethical Considerations
• Qualifications and Recruiting of Pulpit Committee Members

Workshops should be held BEFORE election of a Pulpit Nominating Committee if at all possible. The ideal time is a Friday night-Saturday morning format.
