The  City Coordinator

 Run to and fro, through the streets of Jerusalem, search her squares  to see if you can find a man, one who does justice and seeks truth, that I may pardon her.

                                                                                                              (Jeremiah 5:1).

The city coordinator  will not be directly involved in all of the steps, but will shepherd these processes into being by:
·        listening to, loving and serving the leaders of the church (servant networker)
·        giving initial and ongoing vision (catalyzer and visionary),
·        bringing together those who can get the task done (organizer)- which will include the functioning leaders of all the different strands in the cities transformation, (e.g. networks, consultations, task forces, partnerships). 
·        helping them form effective group dynamics (partnerships)
·        developing the process management structure (integrating the goals, developing communications, defining steps and components of the processes)
·        problem solving

Practical issues:
·        No - one should lead more than 10 people
·        No-one should make decisions alone.
·        The pastors will not be able to do most of the work.  Lay leaders need to be found by the pastoral leaders to bring the processes to birth.  

Key Event and Process Responsibilities

This role could involve identifying (along with the Leadership team), and appointing leaders to:
·        mobilize the research network
·        develop the church-planter's consultation and network
·        develop the city leader's launching conference
·        develop the training / networking center
·        develop an urban issues consultation
·        subsequent networks (strategy groups, partnerships).
·        link to city leaders in other cities (inter-city consultations)

Task Groups

To accomplish the above the coordinator needs to develop groups of volunteers under the overall city Leadership team who take responsibility for aspects of the process.  For each task group, goals, responsibilities and job descriptions need to be defined by the coordinator to get the task accomplished.

The City  Coordinator and the  Leadership team mentioned above will be guiding the city processes, but they must be integrated with the pastoral eldership, the secular eldership, the business Leadership and women in citywide Leadership.
