From our years of experience, Backyard Impact can help you design or grow a community involvement emphasis in your church.

Strategy Sessions
Would you like to have greater alignment and ownership to the overall vision for your church or community? People support what they help to create and Backyard Impact helps sets the stage for your team to create great ministry opportunities together! Using a meeting facilitation model called Results Based Conversations, Tricia and Krista set an exciting pace for creative planning. Teams experience productive conversations through guided learning activities and scenarios. All sessions are tailored to fit your congregation’s goals, availability and budget. Strategic Sessions can happen with your church team or in a combined arena with teams from several organizations in a specific region. Three months worth of meetings and conversations can be accomplished in a one or two day Backyard Impact Strategy Session. But don’t take our word for it. Listen to what some of our past clients have to say:
“North Trenholm has long been an internally strong church, but when we added the dimension of becoming externally focused our vision became blurred. With a sense of where we wanted to go we could not seem to find the road to get there. Our session with Backyard Impact brought clarity to our vision and we gained momentum. Tricia and Krista are professional, faithful servants of Jesus Christ that earnestly desire to see the church take steps to make a difference.”
--Phillip Gerrald, Education Pastor, North Trenholm Baptist Church, Columbia, SC.
"Our experience with Backyard Impact exceeded our expectations. Their facilitation stretched our thinking, focused our vision, and challenged us to be intensely practical in our planning."
--Mike Wood, Senior Minister, Concord Christian Church, Concord, NC
