Lynda Trono is conducting this survey as part of her thesis research on resistance to change in the church. She is a diaconal minister working half time for the Conference of Manitoba and North Western Ontario and a student with the Faculty of Theology at the University of Winnipeg. 

Lynda Trono has been studying church conflict for the past few years and is interested in how congregations respond to change. She would like to about your experience with resistance to change, the level of resistance you have experienced and what you think the blocks are.

The data collected from the survey will be part of her thesis and it will also be shared with Emerging Spirit staff. It is her hope that the information will eventually be used to help the church understand more about the dynamics of change.

Your personal information, your contact information, and your answers to the questions will be kept confidential throughout the process. Your name or any identifying information will not be published without your permission. Your participation in this survey is totally voluntary.

Thank you!
