16. Community Relations/Networking Starts With Your Image?  The image of a ministry should be regarded as one of its most prized possessions.  Your Image is something that is derived from the character of the ministry. CPC

17. Basis Of Image The Greek word “charakter” is translated ‘image’. Once in Hebrews 1:3, the English word “charakter” is derived directly from the Greek. Character is defined as “the aggregate of traits and features that form the apparent individual or thing.

18. Elements Of Image The composite of those traits and features that are observable to the consumer The form of the consumer’s experience of the company as they encounter people in customer service and in different venues The basis (which develops over time) that people use for making decisions about a company

19. Why Is Image Important? We need to provide service to our customers in a way that is linked to our idea of the servanthood of Christ Our Lord went to the Cross and died for others. As we serve our donors, missionaries and friends, we display organizational traits -- the marks of good character--that constitute a good image

20. Relationship & Image Building relationships deals with the realities of the ministry and not just the puffery that goes along with advertising or public relations The most reliable way of having a good image is to have good people who really care about the people you are serving In this way the company represents Christ in the best possible way
