Resources Team Purpose and Responsibilities

Overall Purpose of Resources Team

 

The Resources Team serve a key function in helping regulars and guests at WW to encounter Jesus and to connect with the community of faith that is the Wharfedale Vineyard through the provision for purchase of a range of useful resources that support the teaching and worship at WW, as well as providing helpful information through leaflets, booklets, displays, verbal communication etc.

 

A good job is being done when:

  • Guests and regulars are enabled to purchase resources that help them to build their faith, explore topics and issues addressed in the teaching, and to familiarise themselves with the music used for worship.
  • Guests and regulars can access leaflets etc that provide useful information on the vision and values of The Wharfedale Vineyard and of the wider Vineyard movement, as well as address more general issues of faith and life.
  • People have access to flyers and other promotional material publicising events of interest as determined by the Resources Team leader in agreement with the member of staff supporting WW.
