In light of our congregation’s recent rapid growth, for which we are blessed,  the Building Committee has been considering a number of possible changes to accommodate the needs resulting from this growth.  We are asking each family to provide us with their feedback by completing the brief survey below.  Surveys will remain anonymous.  The results will be tabulated and made available to you at a later date.  They will be used by the Building Committee as we move forward.  Please complete by October 16,  and place in the box in the back of church.  (You may also complete this online using “Survey Monkey”.)

Please click on the stars for your response using the following scale:   4  =  very necessary    3    2    1   =  not necessary


* 1. Church worship area expansion- due to increasing attendance, we are looking at the following options to accommodate seating issues:
a. Physical expansion/construction to increase seating for Sunday service

* 2. Church worship area expansion- due to increasing attendance, we are looking at the following options to accommodate seating issues:

b. Increase the number of Sunday services from one to two, which would affect the flexibility of Sunday School, Bible study, and alter the social hour; this would probably eliminate an evening service

* 5. Due to increasing membership- we are looking at the following to accommodate our programs,  group meetings, and additional staff:

c.  Building expansion which would allow for additional office space to accommodate future staff needs



* 6. Due to increasing membership- we are looking at the following to accommodate our programs,  group meetings, and additional staff:

d. Keep the current facilities as they are and look for ways to incorporate classes, rehearsals and the like into the weekdays.

* 7. Please indicate if you are  involved in any of these types of activities.      

* 8. All of the above probably cannot be accomplished at one time.  Which two of the above needs/solutions do you see as our most immediate:

* 9. Our current membership is 700 with average weekly attendance around 350.  How large should our church become before we consider other solutions, such as starting a satellite church?
