This past Sunday we conducted our annual church wide survey. You can download a copy of the survey here or go online and complete the survey if you are a member/attender of PCC.
Here are a few reasons why we do this survey:
1. It helps us learn more about who is attending our church - their likes, dislikes, personality, demographics, etc.
2. It helps us learn if we are reaching the unchurched or if we are just ministering to those already saved.
3. The demographic information and preferences information will let us know if we are being effective in our outreach and marketing strategies (i.e., newspaper ads, radio, events, etc.)
4. The survey gives me invaluable information for preparing my 2008 Preaching Calendar. When I ask the question about specific struggles people are having it will give me good insight for upcoming series.
5. It gives people an opportunity to express their opinion in a constructive form. Church is a team sport and this collaborative effort gives everyone a chance to offer some input.
