- Getting started with the Church Development Tool - Tuesday 6th June, 2-3pm
What is your church great at? What support would your congregation like to grow in faith and discipleship? How representative is your congregation of the diversity of the community you serve? The Church Development Tool can help you find out – and then point you to simple, tried, and tested resources that will help you act on what you discover.
Find out about how the Church Development Tool could help your worshipping community and see a demonstration of how to set it up and view your results using AChurchNearYou.com.
This session is aimed at church leaders.
We will cover:
• How the Church Development Tool could help you and how it can feed into things you are already doing such as Mission Action Planning
• The questions that the Church Development Tool survey asks
• Preview of materials available to help you invite your congregation to take part
• How to set up the Church Development Tool survey on AChurchNearYou.com for your church
• How to gather responses and view the results
• Time for questions
