Emmanuel Church
Wakefield, Massachusetts
Roundtable
Discussion Questions (first offered on October 29, 2006 following on
the parish forum of the 15th):Wakefield, Massachusetts
1. What role do you want a priest to play in the church? If the parish decides to have a part-time priest because that is what we can afford, how would you like the priest to spend his or her time?
2. What qualities do you want in a new priest? Are there characteristics of other priests - like Libby Berman, a former priest at Emmanuel, or a priest at another church - that you value and would like to see in our new priest?
3. Why do you come to worship at Emmanuel? What brings you in the door on Sundays? What keeps you coming back?
4. If you attended the parish forum on Oct. 15, do you have questions or comments about the information discussed?
