I go to a small church and attenance is around 50 to 60 avg. They are so set in their ways that it is so noticable. They feel they are so open and welcome to visitors. Let me tell you, they are not if they do not know you. If you are not from the area and if you are not of their race. They are so stuck in their ways that if you do anything to change any figures in the church without going through the chair person of that committee(even though you ask a elder of the church) heaven help you! Believe me things will be put back the way they were and the Elder will be put in their place! To me it is so sad that a new member can not help out with out all this fuss . So they get hurt feeling they leave and every thing is left the same. Then you hear " We do not know why we just can seem to grow?" You just want to say Hello! We have young men and women join and they want to help out and they feel comfortable talking to maybe one or two people and they ask those people if they can do this.

The assessments in this area are poorly constructed. They only spit back to you what you have already chosen in responses. The results of the assessment are stereotypical if that accurate. Over all my time has been wasted, all 90 seconds of it.

I agree somewhat with the comment above. I thought I'd get constructive improvement tools re: my answers. I already knew I wasn't strong enough in some areas and answered honestly hoping for input.
