Within the past couple of weeks, our church leadership has been presented with the opportunity/challenge of going multi-site…really fast.  No…like…really fast.  A local church in the Orlando area has voted to become a satellite campus of Faith Assembly starting 2012.  In the next few weeks, I will be sharing more of what our thought process and strategy is from a worship ministry, and how that process will need to remain fluid as we adapt to what works and discover what does not.

Things we know:

1. There is alot we don’t know…I am the first to admit that I am on a new journey and am being stretched in new areas.  There are mistakes that I will make and learn from and also decisions that I will be thankful I made.
2. We will start this journey approximately one month from today.  On January 8, 2012, we will begin leading worship with our team at the new campus.
3. We will have live worship (rhythm section & vocalists) at our new campus made up of people from our current team.
4. We are actively recruiting new members to be involved at both our current location, as well as, our new campus.
5. Not long after we begin our second campus, we will be relocating our main campus 6 miles south of where we are currently at (If you thrive on change, now is a great time to be involved in Orlando Faith Music and Faith Assembly | Orlando).

I will be blogging through some of this process and how certain decisions are being made.  I welcome your comments and would love to hear how your church is handling worship in a multi-site model.

Upcoming Topics will include:

• Recruiting for growth
• Auditioning process for Praise Team and Band
• Scheduling and rotating of singers/players
• Cultivating Culture
