The Ministerial Search Team’s Congregational Survey is HERE!
The Congregational Survey to kick start our Ministerial Search process is LIVE and we want your input. You can find the survey here.
This survey is an opportunity for you to provide your own perspective on First Parish in Concord. The survey is anonymous, and the raw data will be kept confidential. A summary and analysis of the results will be reported back to the congregation.
The survey is our initial way to hear your thoughts and help us create a description of our parish for ministerial candidates to consider. The survey will take 20-30 minutes to complete and will be available until September 30th. Your voice matters! We strongly encourage you to take time to share your perspective. If you have any questions, feel free to contact Kristin Haddad.
