+ Old Fashion Baptist Church Missionary Questionnaire +
+
+ I hate questionnaires! I've been there. I understand that deputation itself is tough enough already without some pastor probing into all kinds of areas! Then there is the fact that so many fundamental pastors themselves disagree in so many areas!
+ Now that I’ve said what you may have already been thinking, let me also say that I am continually amazed that every church doesn’t use a questionnaire to vet their missionaries. The truth is, we take seriously the fact that you are being considered for support by our church and feel that we can’t truly get to know you unless we ask some simple questions.
+
+ You must understand that anyone whom we consider as a missionary for our Church has certain doctrinal beliefs which are assumed by us or else we would not be sending them a questionnaire. We also realize that good men will differ on some things and will make allowances accordingly. Also, because we have one questionnaire for all candidates, many of the things that are asked would be unnecessary if it were not being sent to everyone. We hope you understand that. In order for a missionary to be considered, we request that every question be answered.

+ Thank you for your time and understanding. The questions are not meant in any way to be “trick” questions.
+
+ God bless you!
