Who We Are - Survey Results - Steve
A few weeks ago we began a survey to get a better understanding of who we are. In light of an upcoming move to a new location and a need to prepare for that and for the interim, we needed a “snapshot” of Emergence.
After sorting through hundreds and hundreds of surveys, compiling the results, and distilling some conclusions, the results below are a cross section of our site. Thank you so much for your help in the survey—we’re pretty encouraged by the results.

Out of our average attendance of 650 people/week,
28% are age 45-54

Children of Families at Emergence:
41% are between 6 and 10 years old
30% are between 11 and 13 years old
17% are between 3 years and 5 years old
12% are under 2 years old
97% of people plan to stay at Emergence following the relocation.
25% of us are in scattered small group communities. This is a huge improvement over the last round. Our desire is to see everyone who comes to Emergence plugged in to a Missional Community—and with our new missional initiative happening in the spring, we believe it is a step in the right direction.
69% of attenders are not serving on teams, be it a community team or a service team to keep ministry stable and healthy. The bright side of this is that there are many people still available to move Emergence forward.
If you’re serving on a team—THANK YOU! If you aren’t, we need you to get plugged into one if Emergence is your church home. We have needs both inside and outside our doors. We all need to work together to see Emergence move forward.
If you’re interested in joining up and investing in your church on a support team, check out the Serve at Emergence page.
All in all, the survey showed what we already know to be true: we are a generationally diverse group of people excited about where God has us—now onto next steps!
