This project is designed to determine ways to increase membership retention in churches affiliated with the Baptist Union of Uganda. A questionnaire that assesses the discipleship profile of individual church members will be used to determine the causes for membership dropout. Based on the findings of the survey, a pilot discipleship program will be designed and introduced to churches in the Baptist Union that focuses on specific techniques to improve membership assimilation and retention. Eight churches representative of those found in the Baptist Union will be selected by the project coordinator working with a committee selected by the leadership of the Baptist Union of Uganda. From these churches, members will be randomly chosen to participate in the questionnaire. Data from the questionnaires will be collected, tabulated, and analyzed to ascertain the characteristics of each church according to the following criteria: attitudes, conduct/behavior, relationships to God and people, ministry involvement, and beliefs. Based on this information, changes can be made to strengthen existing discipleship programs and new discipleship programs can be implemented that target specific needs.
