Reminder: Complete the CME Church Technology Survey by December 31


ree

Dear Members of the Christian Methodist Episcopal Church,

Greetings!


The Department of Communication and Information Technology (CIT) has created the CME Church Technology Survey to evaluate technology resources used and needed within our connectional church, with a two-fold emphasis for local churches and our members. In an effort to ensure that there is more participation from our CME members, clergy, and laity of all ages (youth, young adults, and adults), the deadline to complete the survey has been extended to December 31, 2022.


The CME Church Technology Survey will help us to learn from our membership about different perceptions and opinions regarding using technology in our churches and members’ homes and gather insights on software tools, Internet services, and relevant technical skills. Additionally, the survey can help with understanding the challenges faced by our connectional churches and members, identify the resources that are needed to meet the needs, and further assist us with defining communication and information technology strategies for our connectional church.





Please take about 5-10 minutes to fill out the survey by Saturday, December 31, 2022. You are welcome to share this announcement widely with members and friends in your congregations and households. Pastors -- please include the survey link in your church's bulletins and in your announcements.


It is our hope that you will find this survey useful for our connectional church. If you have feedback or questions about the survey, please email cio@thecmechurch.org.

A report on the results of the CME Church Technology Survey will be published in January 2023.


Thanks for your participation and support!

In the Service of the Lord,

Dr. Theresa Duhart, General Secretary/CIO

Faith Works Final Request for the Runoff Election


ree

Dear Sixth Episcopal District, I am grateful for your work during the General and the Runoff Election. Your efforts are truly needed in order to realize our mission, which is to increase voter turnout for this election.
Here are the requests to make that happen… REQUEST #1 (and main request) We need every church in Georgia to quickly start a phone banking effort. It’s as simple as this…

  1. Select a coordinator to lead it, it can be a staff person or a leader in the church (its for only a few days).

  2. Identify at least 3 or more people in your church to make calls either at the church or wherever you choose.

  3. Print out a copy of your church member database, just names and phone numbers.

  4. And schedule a day or days to make all of the calls.

No worries, it is not as difficult as some may think. I have attached 3 documents to assist you, including helpful info, a script, and a page to document how many calls, etc have been made. If you have any questions, please reach out to us at Info@FaithWorks.Vote REQUEST #2 Please review your Faith Works Voter Playbook, and do what it says for these last days. I have attached the document again. Also please see below for an invitation to see WAKANDA Forever for FREE. It’s sponsored by Black Voters Matter. Please help spread the word, this is a really good opportunity to see the film and rally the Vote!
