The GFM Strategic Plan: 2018-2022

By Bobby Gross

The new GFM Strategic Plan for 2018-2022 focuses our priorities in keeping with InterVarsity’s 2030 Calling. The GFM Leadership Team has gone through a time of prayerful discernment that led to the development of this new plan. We integrated what we were hearing from the Lord and from GFM staff with InterVarsity’s national strategies. We now invite you to humbly ask God with us to use these plans to grow His Kingdom in miraculous and amazing ways.

Here is a succinct reminder of the five major goals in the GFM Strategic Plan:

  1. To accelerate planting of new witnessing communities for grad students and faculty
  2. To mobilize more partners, staff and volunteers, to join us in the mission
  3. To strengthen partnership with our undergrad colleagues and with Faculty Ministry
  4. To develop staff as flourishing leaders on flourishing, inclusive teams
  5. To fully resource staff financially

Please view the documents below and let us know if you have additional communications needs related to the current GFM Strategic Plan. If a resource would be helpful for you, chances are someone else may find it helpful also.
