Have you ever answered the phone to hear someone say, “You have won a prize!”?  
 
We got that call!  
 
We were so excited! We were told that we had won a Big Prize because of a simple survey we had completed. They told us that they wanted to give us the gift in person, and they gave us a specific time and place to meet. When we arrived at the destination, we could hardly wait for the announcement of our new prize! Would it be a new car? Would it be a vacation?  
 
Then, the moment came….   

 
A speaker came to the microphone, he started a spiel about buying TIMESHARE vacations. We had no idea that this survey, would come back to bite us, by making us listen to a 3-hour speech about joining…… a TIMESHARE!!!!!!! We felt duped!!! … Thanks a lot SURVEY!!!  

 
Well, I am writing today, to tell you that not all surveys are bad.  
 
Over the last few months, I have been receiving professional coaching for my role in Children and Family Ministry Leadership. It has been a great journey so far.  I have been able to build skills in pastoring, leadership, mentoring, and coaching others. One of my tasks is to put together a "parent survey" that will help me get to know the parents in our church better and help me minister more effectively to the children and families of our community and church.  

 
So today, I am asking all our parents, guardians, and/or grandparents to fill out a survey for our Family Ministries here at CPC.  
My hope for this project is to receive answers and information from you that will help bring clarity and vision, as we move forward. 

 
Over the next few months, as I transition from Youth Leadership into a full-time Family Ministries Pastoral role, my heart's desire is to provide more care, resources, and encouragement to our parents in the areas that are important to them, such as the large task of discipleship in our homes.  I am so excited about my upcoming role and getting to know the parents in our church much better.  

 
Please fill out the survey by clicking this link.  Parent Survey 
 

*Just a heads up, we will be giving 2 gift cards away to 2 randomly chosen individuals who have completed the survey.  
(No timeshares required)
