Congregational Health Survey

The Board of Trustees is excited to be embarking on the 2025-26 church year. As a Board, our main goal is to ensure the successful progress of the church toward our Visionary Goals. These start with “The people of First Universalist practice Beloved Community among and beyond us.” As we look to set goals for ourselves as a Board for the coming year, we would like to better understand your thoughts and feelings about some topics related to how we practice Beloved Community.

The aim is not to generate a detailed, scientifically valid picture of congregational sentiment. Rather, the hope is to get a “finger in the wind” sense of where our greatest opportunities lie. We will use the information gathered in this survey, along with our own perspectives and those of the staff, to inform capacity building, policy development, and board activities and priorities in the year ahead.

Please take some time – about 10 minutes – to complete this survey. Your responses will be invaluable as we plan for the year, and will help us plan for the year ahead and better serve this church.
