Looking at the social and demographic
characteristics of the local community sheds light on the people to
which we hope to minister. Looking at trends in membership, average
worship attendance, and financial giving sheds light on congregational
strength and whether current patterns indicate growth, decline or
stability.
The main application will allow you to locate your congregation.
After clicking the congregation, a small box will appear showing quick
stats and links to explore trends with Parochial Report data and Explore
Neighborhood with demographic data.
"Explore Trends" track membership, participation, and giving over
the most recently available eleven years for your congregation and your
diocese. These data are from annual Parochial Reports. "Explore
Neighborhood" gives you a demographic overview of the area within a 15
minute driving distance of your congregation's physical location.
