The BIG LISTEN

IMG_6785The Big Listen has concluded and the Ministerial Search Committee (MSC) is delighted to be able to share with you three critical documents for your review in preparation for Candidating Week, our Congregational Meeting and Vote.  Please mark your calendar and plan to join us for one of the upcoming forums – Saturday October 24, Sunday October 25, Monday October 26, Thursday October 29, Saturday October 31, Tuesday November 3, and Friday November 6.  

The three documents are: 

  • The Congregational Record (CR):

    A summary of what we learned from you throughout every aspect of “The Big Listen.” It is the MSC’s honest assessment of who we are as a congregation (Outlined in the Congregational Profile section) and the characteristics of the person who would be an excellent match as our new senior minister (Outlined in the Ministerial Profile section). Important reading! You may find a copy of our CR at bit.ly/congregationalrecord* or by clicking HERE: Congregational Record-Public

  • Results from Our Congregational Survey:

    Four hundred and fifty five people took the time to share with us in our online survey. This data formed an important foundation for our assessment of the congregation and contains essential demographic information not available to us from any other source. It also gave us our best picture of the breadth of our diversity of religious beliefs. Please take the time to review the results of the survey. You may view or print the PDF of the survey results at bit.ly/congregationalsurvey or by clicking HERE:  Survey – Response Freq Order.*  To view the survey results with access to “comments” (to see,  for example, what people typed in after selecting “Other” for their response), visit bit.ly/surveywithcomments or click HERE.

  • Notes from Our Discovery Sessions:

    One hundred and fifty people each generously invested two hours of their time to participate in one of our 17 Discovery Sessions where they responded to a number of open-ended questions focusing on several key areas of the Congregational Record.  These notes were recorded on flip charts so that everyone present could help ensure that they accurately reflected the speaker’s intent.  To view the notes from our Discovery Sessions, visit bit.ly/dsnotes or click HERE.*

*If you are unable to view or print these documents for yourself, you may request a paper copy from the church office
