Building Plan Questionaire

If you consider Metro Christian Fellowship your home church then we would like to hear from you about plans around our future location. Your input will help us to make decisions as we pursue the possibility of relocating our church.

To respond to this survey please copy/paste the text below into an email message, complete it by answering the survey questions and send it to our team.

As you know, our lease will end with the Lutheran High School May 2010. We are considering several options: either continue leasing from the Lutherans or look for a new location.

That’s why this survey is important; we want to hear from the members of Metro. We want to know what you think about this upcoming change.
