Presbytery Survey for Personnel Workshops

In September 2023, the Presbytery of Olympia hosted a series of workshops designed to support and equip church leaders—particularly Pastors, Treasurers, and Personnel Committee members. We're now considering offering similar workshops during our Regional Gatherings in September 2025 or 2026. Your input is important to us! Please take a moment to answer the questions below so we can ensure these workshops provide relevant, high-quality content. Thank you in advance for your feedback!
