Dear everyone,
Sub: Planning consultation 2009 (13th to 15th November at Nagpur)
Greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Please go through the following content of the letter, read it in your respective EUs and EGFs and discuss the matter in your respective Zonal, state, regional, district and local committees.
With brio and vivacity UESI launched a comprehensive 10 year plan in the year 2000. Now the time has come to review the progress, analyze the process and embark on a new 10 year plan called Vision 2020. The rapid and sweeping changes in the political, economic, cultural and scientific fronts have greater impact on the life and life style of young students and have thrown open many new challenges. Bygone days are so different from the present. Time is at the premium now. Pressure of work has its toll on young minds. The general morale seems to be dwindling. Compromising attitude is creeping into the lives. But the Gospel and its impact remain the same. Since UESI deals with young students, it is appropriate to take stock of the realities and make practical plans. The hard lesson that we have learnt is that quality is as important to us as quantity. Ministry expansion in terms of geographical reach is not a substitute for one to one discipleship. That is why we need a thorough evaluation of the Vision 2010 plan and its implementation and come up with a carefully drafted Vision 2020 plan. Apart from drawing up the Vision 2010 document, the UESI has contemplated on bringing out a set of Strategic Priorities in line with the 4 aims of UESI. Some of the priorities for example are 1. Sharing and Shaping (Evangelism & Discipleship) 2. Global Impact (Raising testimony and imparting missions’ awareness and training) 3. Good Governance etc. But the UESI is now at the threshold of identifying the Strategic Priorities now. The items are still under consideration.
Secondly, the leadership of UESI felt that it to be appropriate to peep into the administrative structures and make necessary changes which could not only facilitate the implementation of Vision 2020 but also address various administrative lacunae.
Thirdly, The leadership of UESI has felt the need of using software system to capture the data and process it with ease.
To realize all these three things, a preliminary consultation was organized in Delhi on the 9th of July, 2009 and another preparatory meeting was held in Bangalore on 1st August, 2009. As a result 3 task groups are formed the details of which are given below.
1. Vision 2020 Task-group
¬ To revisit Vision Statement of UESI.
¬ To write down a Mission Statement for UESI.
¬ To revisit / refine, if need be our Core- values.
¬ To define strategic directives for the next 5/10 years for the ministry of UESI.
2. Restructuring Task-group (Governance & management)
¬ To review the current structure and recommend an appropriate organizational structure for UESI which will help in delivering the strategic directives.
¬ To define positions, role-set (reporting & critical relationships) for each position, levels of authorities across UESI.
¬ To relook at legal requirements and also roles played by graduates, students and staff.
3. MIS (Management Information System)Task group
¬ To provide a software solution for Ministry Planning and Monitoring System (MPMS) for UESI, which will help to capture critical data and track the ministry at various levels of UESI.
To bring this whole concept to fruition, a unique plan is thought about by the concerned people involved in the planning exercise. This plan is called Bible Reading Plan christened as Soaring Eagle UESI. The term ‘soaring eagle’ conveys something important. To renew itself, an eagle goes to a secret quite place in the mountains and plucks out its feathers and breaks its beak by hitting against the rock. But as a result, after a few months, the beak and the feathers grow. The new eagle soars high in the sky full of youthfulness to live its next phase of life. Even as UESI seeks to make plans and changes for its next fresh phase of life and ministry, it needs to wait on the Lord to renew itself. We need to depend on God and His precious Word for correction and guidance. Since this planning that we are talking about is a critical exercise, it is important to seek God’s mind in the entire process of planning and final decision making. It is therefore proposed that the entire constituency reads the Scriptural portions together and pray together. This will ensure that the process is soaked in the Word and Prayer. Joint Reading and sharing of thoughts may eliminate personal prejudices and presuppositions.
No organizational Reengineering is effective without the personal reengineering of hearts, minds and spirits. We underline the value that devotions, God’s Word and Prayer as the vital aspects the palnning process. We all in UESI will be reading the following books as per the schedule given below.
1. Daniel 12 Chapters
2. Haggai 02 Chapters
3. Zechariah 14 Chapters
4. Ezra 10 Chapters
5. Nehemiah 13 Chapters
6. Esther 10 Chapters
7. Malachi 04 Chapters
n Why only these books? Read them and find them.
n Who will be reading? The entire constituency of UESI. The individual units of UESI may take up these books or portions of them for study during group devotions, committee meeting devotions, EU / EGF Bible studies etc. Individual EU/EGF members in their Bible study time can follow the reading plan. These Scriptural portions studied
n What is the duration of the reading? September 12 to November 15 - 65 days.
