From the Nominating Committee

 

Fellow Parishioners:

 

Our church has entered into a time of discernment during which we are gathering information to guide our decisions for our future at Good Shepherd as we search for a new priest.  At this point our focus has been on completing the Parish Profile that will be used in our job posting to help highlight all that is wonderful about Good Shepherd and Covington/Newton County.  It will also be a way that we can look to the future with our hopes and desires for Good Shepherd’s future.  We will be using a church wide survey to gather YOUR thoughts and opinions: The Church Assessment Tool (CAT). This tool will provide a clearer picture of who we are as a church and what directions might be important for our future. Your response is very important to us.

​

Please plan to take the CAT survey before March 27th.

Other places to take survey:

​

1. Paper copies provided as requested.

2. Via QR code that will be located on our website, bulletin, enews, in the Narthex and in the Parish Hall.

3. If needed, we will have computers set up in the upstairs of the Parish Hall after church on the following Sundays- March 12th, 19th and 26th.

 

All answers are strictly anonymous. We have no way of matching any assessment to a particular person, so please feel free to candidly share your perceptions, opinions and experiences. The assessment will take approximately 20-25 minutes to complete. Please set aside enough time to complete the survey all at one time. Our future together is dependent on your participation and honest answers.

 

If you have questions, please contact me at 770-367-3283 or loysturner@gmail.com

 

Many thanks and blessings as we move forward as one in the Body of Christ,

 

Loy Turner, Nominating Committee Chair
