MissionInsite provides important demographic information for disciple-making

MissionInsite

The Congregational Development Resource Team and The Office of Urban and Global Ministries have partnered to bring MissionInsite to the local churches of the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference.  We are licensed for one primary user from each local church to access the database.

"MissionInsite equips you with an interactive, map-driven, web-based resource, called The MI System. This system provides over 50 variables of current demographic information. This information is provided on the MissionInsite website. http://www.missioninsite.com

The MI System provides you with a new way to access community information. It moves beyond static reports you order to neighborhoods you explore. If you have used MapQuest or Google Maps, you will find yourself at home in the MI System.

While there are a few things you need to learn, the system is designed to be user friendly and provides you with additional services not available from other systems. Have fun exploring your mission context and remember there is no possibility of accidentally harming the system or data."  -- from MissionInsite
 

Announcing MissionInsite's NEW Spring 2010/2015/2020 Data Updates  -

MissionInsite is pleased to announce another industry leading first for our clients!   MissionInsite clients will now receive two updates each year, the first to arrive in the Spring and the second in the Fall.  For this first round, the Spring update will just now be put online.  In the future, you will receive an update in mid-Fall and another in mid-Spring.  With this email we are announcing that the first semi-annual update reflecting the Spring 2010/2015 and 2020 update is about to be put online. We believe this sets the new standard for providing the most current community information for the church world.  Our clients have requested notification prior to each data update in order for them to have sufficient time to save any current projects, maps or significant reports generated from the current 2009/2014/2019 database.  Once the new 2010 data is online, clients will not be able to retrieve any previous year reports.  We suggest you generate and save any 2009/2014/2019 data you wish to archive within the next several days. We plan to upload the new data this coming weekend.  Questios to: The MissionInsite Team, 877-230-3212 ext. 329;msaxon@missioninsite.com.
