After three days of this 'Commissioned Ministry' I have come up with a draft survey which will 'officially' go to a number of Baptist Churches here in Yorkshire.
However, it would be fascinating to get some feedback from others on the questions I want to ask, so I'll blog the surveya section at a time. I look forward to your responses (thanks) ...
1. How do children fit into the life of your church? How integrated are they?
2. Do the adults in the congregation know what happens in your children’s groups and activities?
3. How are they informed?
4. Is there a link between the service or sermon theme and the children’s activities?
5. Do you have a children’s address before the youngsters leave for their activities?
6. What are your church’s arrangements for children when there is a communion service?
7. What children’s work / activities do you offer in your church? Please give details.
a. Sunday School or Junior Church?
b. Mothers and Toddlers Groups?
c. Midweek Clubs?
d. Other (please state)
8. For each activity mentioned above, what proportion of time is spent on:
a. Worship?
b. Instruction?
c. Prayer?
d. Craft Activities?
e. Play?
f. Other (please state)?
9. Do you have All Age Services?
a. How often?
b. At what times?
c. Who attends these services?
d. Who plans and leads these services?
e. What resources / materials are used?
