Don's Idea

Myers Park United Methodist Church Worship Questionnaire
May 2001
The Worship Team needs your help. You can help decide how our worship services can reach more members (and others) and if the present services need changes. Myers Park United Methodist Church has over 4,000 members with an average attendance on Sunday for the worship services of 1,000 people. The main purpose of this questionnaire is to learn from our members and others their ideas to help in making decisions on future services and if we need a new and different worship service
