Introduction and Purpose

You are invited to participate in an online survey which is part of the research project Understanding Transcultural Belonging in CBAC Youth and Children’s Ministries. This research project is led by a team at Acadia Divinity College.

The purpose of this research is to support culturally sensitive ministry practices in congregations.

The research team also includes Dr. Jody Linkletter, Assistant Professor of Next Generation Ministry; Dr. Steve McMullin, Professor Emeritus and Consultant on Intercultural Competency; Joel Murphy, Facilitator of Trend Research and Analysis; and graduate researchers Joetta Fernando and Vipin Joseph. Funding has been provided by the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada.
