I need a research proposal written for Sociology class. I would like to examine the relationship between gender and religious beliefs/participation. I have several assignments that I need incorporated

This quantitative research will examine the relationship between gender and religious beliefs/participation. I would like to have a sample size of 50 women within the Signal Mountain Community. This is a religious community that consists of members of all denominations who come together for one purpose, to worship God. I would ask questions such as, how old were you when you became a Christian? What is the highest position you have held in a church? Does the church you are a member of have more women or male leaders? I would hope to find out how many denominations within the Community treat women the same.

I would like to conduct two face to face interviews, each with the highest held position in the church. I would ask questions such as, does your church allow women to hold the same positions men hold? Have you witnessed a shift in gender roles in the denomination you are a member to or know of? Dependent variable is the amount of men and women who actively serve/participate in church. Independent variable is who has a higher participation rate men or women. The study will prove that gender roles in churches are not nor have they been, nor will they ever be equal.
