Where are we now?

Where do we want to be?

How will we get there?

1. EXAMEN

We look at how God has been active in the world, in our mission and in the activities that we have undertaken. All is from His inspiration.

4. ANALYSIS

Evaluation of the information collected.

7. PLAN OF ACTION

Each objective should have a plan that details how it will be achieved.

2. UNDERSTANDING THE MISSION

The mission acts as a compass. We want to bring the reconciliation of the Gospel, the justice of the Kingdom and to help people get to know Jesus Christ in a personal and passionate way.

5. CHOOSING APOSTOLIC PRIORITIES

Based on this research and evaluation we decide on apostolic priorities. These should be focused and not too general.

8. RESOURCES

We need to put resources in place in order to achieve the plan of action.

3. RESEARCH THE CONTEXT

Examine the internal strengths and weaknesses as well as external opportunities and threats.

6. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES

Specific objectives are the concrete things to be achieved in order to implement the apostolic priority.

9. MONITORING

Build in procedures for monitoring and for modifying strategies based on changes in the external or internal environment.

10. COMMUNICATION

Communication of the apostolic plan gets people on board and helps implementation.
