Update – Note from Pastor Gordon about the questionnaires:
I do ask that each questionnaire be signed. Therefore, I will be the only person reading, collating, summarizing and tabulating the questionnaires. I will cluster the responses in different categories (e.g. demographics; strengths or concerns) and report these back to the elders and then to the congregation in a Town Hall meeting. In all my reports, care will be taken so that no names or identifying information will be included.
