These results are from the questionnaires completed by each table at the September 8 Potluck and reflect our congregation’s diversity. For example, Facebook and social media were rated effective by some tables and ineffective by others.

The board is examining ways to incorporate your suggestions. One quick win – approved board minutes are now posted on the bulletin board. The linked report tabulates responses to the questionnaire and includes additional suggestions offered.

We recognize that board communication with the congregation (our strategic priority) and more general communication among congregants, committees, staff and the general public are closely linked since they share many of the same platforms. Several important suggestions fell into this category. We will be looking at ways the board can best support existing and emerging work in these areas. If you did not have a chance to complete the questionnaire, you can access it here.
