WELCOME TO PERCEPT

The leading demographics company for the past 13 years was created to assist leaders struggling to formulate effective mission strategies in today's environment and make sense of what is happening to society in general.

Percept's fundamental principle of ministry is people…knowing who they are, where they hurt and how to communicate with them. According to Michael Regele, Percept's founder, this is the mission of the church - being faithful in proclaiming the Good News and bringing forth the realities of the Kingdom of God in our communities.

In order to fulfill Dr. Herb Knudsen's (our Regional Minister and President) goal for CCIW in the 21^st century, The Regional Office has contracted with Percept to provide the most up-to-date information possible to help the Region's churches discover those realities for mission opportunities. We believe in order to remain a healthy, vital and growing church in the 21^st century, we need to know what our people are saying and needing.

Demographic studies can help you do just that. The Regional Office is your resource for beginning your journey into the 21^st century armed with the necessary information you need to remain vital, healthy and growing. To request more information, call 309-828-6293.
