MissionInsite empowers faith-based and nonprofit organizations with the tools they need to visualize and cultivate their current and prospective members, donors and volunteers and solve their most difficult challenges.
MissionInsite Empowers & Illuminates Your Community Engagement
The ECC and the East Coast Conference have partnered in the past with this feature rich demographic resource to equip and empower thoughtful, insightful, prayerful, and well informed strategic planning that integrates micro local and regional demographic information with congregational and ministry specific planning. Although this partnership is no longer, local churches can engage in Mission Insite individually and directly access to their resources for a fee. Each church is provided their own login, and unlimited separate personal accounts are available to ministry leaders/members to facilitate individualized ministry exploration.
MissionInsite also provides all the customer support directly, so feel free to contact them here.

- QuickInsite Worksheet is a document you can use to learn more about the “story” of your neighborhood.
- U.S. Census Bureau – The official site of the U.S. Census Bureau, here you will find links to many different types of studies.
- The American Church Research Project – TheAmericanChurch.org seeks to provide accurate religious research for a comprehensive picture of the church today. Most of the research is not readily available anywhere, let alone gathered together in one place. Dave Olson is the Director of Church Planting for the Evangelical Covenant Church, and as a hobby has been collecting research data for the last 15 years. This research grew out of Dave’s frustration that no one really knew how the American Church was doing, and instead Christian leaders were often making wild guesses and declarative statements based on inaccurate hearsay. Exaggerating the challenges, overestimating the progress or ignoring reality have been common Christian responses to the missional challenges for Christians in the United States. This research was undertaken because we cannot know where to go and how to get there until we find out where we are and why we are in that situation.
