Church Development Tool survey 2024
We invite everyone to fill in this survey to help direct the direction of the benefice over the next year. The survey responses will help us understand ourselves as a church and shape our prayers and our planning for the year ahead.
There is no right or wrong answer to any of the questions, you can just state what you think or do. Not all of the questions might feel relevant to you and you don’t have to answer them all.
The survey does not ask for your name or contact details and no one at your church will be able to look at your individual response, they will only be able to see the added up results for the church as a whole. We won't share your data outside of the Church of England.
Paper Copies of the survey can be found in all of the 9 Bridges Churches, please return to a churchwarden or back to the benefice office.

Our Mission
Why are we here?
It is always a really hard question to answer, why are we here? As a benefice (group of churches), it is important to focus on what is our purpose. The diagram should give an idea of what we feel is the work of the church in this place.
