Town Hall Meeting Announcement

Please join the Pastoral Search Committee on March 14, 2010 at 12:30 pm in the Sanctuary for a town hall meeting where we will discuss the results of our 2010 Pastoral Search Congregational Survey. On January 26, the survey that was sent to over 2,800 members and friends of Resurrection MCC. The survey closed at midnight on February 21. Over 400 respondents completed the survey, resulting in a response rate of nearly 15%. Of the 400+ respondents, over half are members of the church, which is a significant return for our church membership!
 
Copies of the Pastoral Search Committee’s 2010 Congregational Survey Report will be available at all entrances to the Sanctuary on the morning of March 14. So, again, please join us at 12:30 pm in the Sanctuary on March 14 where we will discuss the contents of this report. If you are unable to attend the town hall meeting, you may e-mail your questions to PastoralSearchCommittee@ResurrectionMCC.org. As always, we welcome any and all feedback that you may have.

Pastoral Search Committee
Congregational Survey

Greetings Church Family!
 
The Resurrection MCC Pastoral Search Committee needs your help. We want to find out what you desire in a new Senior Pastor, and your thoughts and feelings about our church. We are asking all members and friends of Resurrection MCC to complete a 10-15 minute anonymous survey. Please do not skip a question. It will be most helpful to us if you answer all the questions. If a question seems unclear to you, we would appreciate if you would do your best to answer it.
 
In order for us to tabulate the results in a timely manner, we ask that you complete the survey now. If you desire more time to complete the survey, please complete it no later than Sunday, February 21, 2010. It is important that we hear from every member of our congregation, so we thank you in advance for your time and cooperation in completing this survey. We will share a summary of the results with you at our next Town Hall Meeting to be held on Sunday, March 14, 2010, at 12:30 pm in the Sanctuary.
 
Again, thank you for your time! If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us. We welcome any and all comments that you may have.  You may e-mail your comments to PastoralSearchCommittee@ResurrectionMCC.org. 
 
In conclusion, if you would like to find out more about the pastoral search process or have any questions regarding the congregational survey, we invite you to attend an open meeting of the Pastoral Search Committee to be held on Thursday, February 11, 2010 at 6:30 pm in The Gathering Place.
