Infertility Communication and the Church: My name is Laelle Tuggy, a communications student at Wheaton College, currently taking a Human Communication Research course. Our professor, Dr. Rebecca Sietman, is writing a book about discussing infertility within the church community and has created a survey to help collect data. We would love for you to take part in this research, both by taking the survey and passing it along to other Christians who attend church. The survey is anonymous and completely voluntary.
We believe that the more people who take this survey, the more valuable insights we will gain in addressing this significant issue within our churches. You can access the survey through this link: Infertility Communication and the Church. If you have questions, please reach out to our professor or me: rebecca.sietman@wheaton.edu, laelle.tuggy@my.wheaton.edu

A need for reliable transportation has been shared with our church. If you have a vehicle you are considering selling, contact the church office at office@faithecc.org.
