  5. IOP 11-12: Congregational Survey
 
 
Earlier this year, your pastor was selected to participate in the Institute of Preaching sponsored by our annual conference and Duke Divinity School. The Institute brings together talented preachers to learn and grow together through a series of sessions across nine months. By completing the survey below, you will help be a part of your pastor’s learning experience. As a reminder, the survey is anonymous and can only be completed once. A report will be compiled from all survey responses and provided to your pastor in the Institute’s first session in September.
