Pulse of the Congregation Results - 2024

Pulse Survey

Results of the 2024 “Pulse of the Congregation” Survey

What is the Pulse Survey?

The ‘Pulse of the Congregation’ is an anonymous survey that the Eno River Unitarian Universalist Fellowship (ERUUF) conducts every year to obtain the input of members and friends about how we are doing as a congregation. The survey is administered by the Committee on Evaluation of Ministry, a subcommittee of the Board of Trustees.

This year, the survey was significantly refined to facilitate the development of a comprehensive story centered around ERUUF. Areas of focus included:

  • Overall perceptions of ERUUF
  • Progress made on ERUUF’s Mission, Ends Statements, Annual Vision of Ministry, and the 2023-2026 Strategic Plan
  • Members’ and friends’ connection and engagement with ERUUF, as well as their perceptions of the various programs and groups at ERUUF
  • Congregational post-pandemic experiences
  • The current health and well-being of members and friends
  • What the congregation desires most from ERUUF, and
  • Overall compliments and/or concerns members and friends had about ERUUF.

How Are the Pulse Data Used?

Your input is shared with Rev. Jacqueline, the Senior Ministerial Staff, the Board of Trustees, and the office staff. The report is also shared with the broader congregation in a variety of ways, including through the website, at the annual meeting, and through leadership forums. Results are actively used in program development, program refinement, and/or services offered by ERUUF (e.g., Pastoral Care, Religious Education, etc.).
