Leadership Transition Pastor Phil Kniss retired in December 2024 after 28 years, signaling a leadership transition window. This presents an opportunity to offer interim ministry services, pastor search support, and communications planning to stabilize congregation engagement and donor confidence.
Digital Outreach The church already uses video streaming tech and Google Analytics, suggesting potential to expand online reach, improve sermon archives, and leverage data-driven content strategies; proposals include upgraded livestream setup, podcasting, and customized analytics dashboards.
Fundraising Enablement With modest revenue and a small staff, there is room to introduce streamlined giving, donor relationship management, and fundraising campaigns that integrate with Google Workspace to boost contributions and stewardship.
IT Support Volunteer-driven operations can benefit from scalable IT and security services, including managed Google Workspace optimization, data backups, phishing protection, and device management to reduce risk and downtime.
Website Modernization The current tech stack shows room for modernization of the church website, accessibility improvements, and mobile-first design; offering a CMS solution, SEO, and content strategy could improve discoverability and member engagement.
