What have others said about
the Ministry Area Profile? |
 |
| "As I have gone through the material, I have been
greatly impressed when, page after page, new (to me), highly relevant and valuable
material has appeared. You are to be congratulated for developing an inform- ation
gathering and sharing format that I feel sure is of tremendous help to churches such as
ours, institutions that could never amass the resources to do this kind of study." |

"What a gold mine!
…Not only are leaders spared the tedium of prying out by hand the proper census data
for their ministry area; this basic material is now enhanced with a close analysis of
local lifestyle subgroups and is summarized in an attractive graphic format." |

| "We find it an effective tool and use it often. Our evangelism
committee uses it to help focus our energies and strategize our outreach program. The
Profile also helps us increase awareness among the various ethnic groups we have within a
5-mile radius of our church." |

REV. PAUL E. HAUENSTEIN
Christ the King Lutheran Church, Sebastian, FL |
|
"The Ministry Area Profile has helped many of our churches in their
efforts to reach out
to their respective communities. The information provided is really excellent—
it's the best I know of." |
|
REV. JANE B. ANDERSEN
Presbytery of Western Reserve, Cleveland, OH |
|
| "I use the Ministry Area Profile really extensively and find it
tremendously helpful. We use it for both evangelism and fund-raising. As an example of how
useful the information can be, the budgeted day-care center in our new building fund was
controversial until the Profile showed us that 33% of the households in our area had
children under five years old and 67% of the women worked!" |
