First Baptist Church: Forward In Ministry (2)

On re-gathering for Discipleship, Fellowship and Mission over the summer

In a time of Covid-19, our guiding principle is to continue our mission and ministry as the church while following the best recommended practices to prevent spread of disease, out of love for one another and our community.

This survey is intended to help us better understand the needs and perspectives of our church family as we shape our ministry moving forward.

Question Title

* 1. How are you feeling right now about being part of a regular gathering with other people in the church (of any kind; small group/study/mission)

I am ready and desire to re-connect with others in some kind of regular gathering

I would be open to the possibility

It may be quite a while before I choose to participate

I’m not interested in being part of a regular gathering or small group

I’m not sure

Question Title

* 2. The current recommendation from the state and the Center for Disease Control is that small groups be limited to no more than 10 people. Given that likely restriction, would you still be interested in attending a small group?

Yes

Unsure

Question Title

* 3. If a small group experience were offered that interested you, would you attend at a location other than church?

Yes

Unsure

Question Title

* 4. If you are a regular participant in an existing class or small group, which would you prefer over the near-term timeframe:

To meet with my existing class, should it choose to do so (within the group size limits of 10)

To participate in a new group for the summer.

I’m not ready to return to any group yet.

Question Title

* 5. If you are not currently a part of an existing class or small group, how do you think the church should determine who attends which small group?

Have sign up of interested persons and then be divided into groups of 10.

Have people join a group of their interest until the total reaches 10 and then start another section or offer another small group.

Not sure

Question Title

Spiritual Growth / Bible Study

The opportunity to discuss current issues from a Christian perspective

Providing space to share life and get to know one another as Christians

Engaging in community mission/volunteering together

A group that incorporated all of the above at different times

Continuation of current Sunday school classes

Question Title
